So today we wrapped up our Youth Seminar @ SunnySide Church. There was a full house (~200ish), and we all got to share our different seminars. We also did a vacation bible school activity (making butterflies!) with the children at Samaritan's Church. Tomorrow Leah & I are going to Immanual Baptist Church to share some words. I want to talk about John the Baptist's challenge to his followers "Bear fruit in keeping with repentance" (Matt. 4ish). I especially want to encourage the youth we've had a chance to interact with, to put into action ("fruit") the principles and teachings they've learned this past week.
Pray for our time together, that we would mutually encourage each other as brothers and sisters in Christ. Our desire and continued prayer is for the Youth of Zambia to take their HIV epidemic seriously, and respond by pursuing a God-honoring lifestyle. By pursuing a sexual lifestyle that honors God, the youth can make a difference in their generation, in both their physical and spiritual health.
We're flying out of Lusaka Monday around 1pm, and supposed to get into LAX around 2pm on Tuesday. Only one more day, we pray that we may make the most of our short time. Thank you for your prayers, and see you soon!
And, as most of the statements in church here are punctuated, "Hallelujah." To which the Body responds, "Amen!"
Hallelujah. Amen!
