A Little Success Story

Every Wednesday and Friday, we go to a village called Busanza. The first time (mentioned on Tuesday of A Week of Days in the Life), our church service had 2 mothers and 20 kids. The second time, we had maybe 9 adults and more kids. The third time, we had 25 people. The fourth time, we had 35 adults, including Rosette, the widow who could barely walk but still walked all the way to church, and 50-60 kids. Ten people came forward to receive Christ. We are outgrowing the classroom that we've been meeting in. We show up two hours before the service and just walk around, inviting people to church. It's really easy to visit people because they stay outside so much. We split up in groups with at least one Rwandan in each group to do most the talking and interpreting when we want to say something. I'm going to push for us to start handing out Bibles as well.
