This was another great day of ministry. We divided the team. Steve, Jessica, Adam, and Emily returned to Chiwoza to help with the Sunday service. Of course, their interpreters were with them. Constance, Allison, Hannah, and I went to Kamoyo.
In Chiwoza Jessica and Emily led a VBS session with the children, Adam taught adult Sunday school, and Steve preached, a message on leadership from the book of Nehemiah. About 17 adults were present with many children. After the service, the chief of the village gave a brief address thanking the team.
In Kamoyo, Constance, Emily, and Allison led the children’s VBS and I taught Sunday school and preached. About twice as many adults were in attendance at Kamoyo, and again there were many children. The team also helped by singing “Lord I Lift you Name on High” (complete with hand motions) for the Malawians. I also joined three natives (one of which was the pastor), in singing (in proper harmony) a hymn in Chichewa.
We spent the afternoon resting after our busy week. It is a bit sad to realize that our time is now slanting towards our return to Norfolk Malawi
