Nzoundou Chapel Seminar!

Friday through today we had a three day seminar at the Nzoundou Chapel. All three mornings I taught a illustrated Bible lesson, not only to the children but to the whole congregation. Friday and Saturday I taught a health lesson. On Friday it was on AIDS and on Saturday it was on brushing teeth. In the photo Mrs. Louise Ngora is showing everyone how she thinks teeth should be brushed.

The main message each morning was was taught by a different person from the Bongolo Church. On Friday Pastor Jonathan Ngora taught the subject "The Deity of Jesus, Our God". On Saturday morning Mrs.Louise Ngora taught on the subject, "The Humanity of Jesus, Our Savior". This morning Evangelist Patrice taught on "The Life of Christ, Our Model". Three of the Ngora sons came with to help out with the music so most mornings we were a team of eight people who drove the 15 minutes from Bongolo to the small village of Nzoundou.


We had attendance of 43 on Friday, 66 on Saturday and 85 people this morning! See some photos that were taken during the three day seminar.
During the weekend we had fourteen people make decisions for Christ. On Friday there was one young person, on Saturday there were  four people and today there were nine people who accept Christ into their lives! Praise the Lord.

After each morning session  Village Chief Inono and his wife Marie had us over for lunch. Here they are standing outside their home.

Just before leaving the village today we saw a pet monkey, tied to a tree. I had not seen him before in this village. Yes, I do live in Africa!

BBQ in the Tiki Room!

On July 4th the Mission family had a BBQ on the new porch made on the second level of the QuadraPlex. It is outside between Paul and Meladee Davis' home and Karen Fitch's home. Paul and Meladee named their new screened in  porch the "Tiki Room"! It was a great place to have our Independence day BBQ. See some photos.
