Day One Hundred and Nineteen

It was Sunday morning.  I made toast and eggs for breakfast, and drank Lipton tea.  My housekeeper came cleaning the wood floors of the house.  My teammate drove up to the house and I went with them to the village.

The children got up to sing some songs.  They went up one at a time, starting with the oldest.  Even the babies wanted to join them.  They played and laughed under the altar as the older children sang, 'I testify that the Lord is God, I am a witness that the Lord is God.'

Then the young people went up to sing for us.  'Shine the Light,' they sang together.  'Let us Love One Another as Christ Has Loved Us' they sang, all four of the girls holding one another's hands and the one boy holding his own hand!

The sermon followed, and testimonies.  We listened while the wind blew in and out of the windows.  A new baby slept beside us on the mat-covered floor.

When it was time for the offering, a little boy took my offering to the basket on the pulpit for me.
