Sunday Speak

In case you hadn't figured it out by our long silence, we have returned to "our home and native land." In this last period of silence, we have visited Johannesburg (for 7 hours - and it's truly a strange story), and Munich and Neuschwanstein (home of Mad King Ludvig - strange little man who died in a shallow lake) in Germany.

The last blog we wrote was a description of travel "inside." The impressions left on us of crossing the Kenyan border northward, however, are not the roads - but the incredible people we met. Men and women of God who are defying the odds, crossing tribal lines, sharing their faith and their dreams with those around them, and inspiring us to do the same. We were privileged beyond words to pray with them, listen to them, urge them on in their work, and be awed and encouraged by their life journeys and their living testimonies.

Now we are over jet-lag and bubbling with stories. Do you want to hear them? We'll be sharing them at Mackenzie Towne Church tomorrow morning at 10:00am (that's Sunday, September 2), with pictures and maybe music and a little dancing (okay, not likely the dancing...).

If you are interested in hearing some stories and can't make it tomorrow, feel free to contact us via email or phone. We are still VERY MUCH enjoying western food and would love to chat over dessert or some such nummy treat.
