ORPHAN'S HEART in UGANDA Tuesday


God is good...all the time! 
 
Women the world over enjoy being celebrated, and they love receiving gifts!  The women of Kamonkoli, Africa are no different!  The team had the privilege of leading the women of Kamonkoli in a retreat that began today and will continue through tomorrow.
 
 
The morning began with praise and worship.  What that means in Kamonkoli is singing, dancing, and more dancing!  David danced before the Lord, and so did we!   Another beautiful aspect of their worship is the body of believers greeting and fellowshipping with one another. The women laugh, hug, smile and curtsy to one another.  The warmth and joy with which they regard each other is a sweet blessing and a habit we have all quickly picked up! 
 

During our small group time the women shared many of the unimaginable circumstances they have endured.  Time and time again, though, as they were sharing their lives, they were also voicing, “God is good...all the time!” So many of the women have every reason to be crushed by the loss in their lives, yet they choose to rely on our Heavenly Father, and the joy in which they continue to praise God is truly inspiring.

Please pray for the second day of the conference and for many more to surrender their lives to Christ if they do not know Jesus.  Two precious women did today!  The angels are rejoicing!
