One of the special joys that I often get on these trips is the opportunity to be a part of worship with a local family of faith. Jaison asked me if I would come to their house meeting on Wednesday evening and then speak to them. I was of course, delighted to do so.
The home where we worshiped belonged to this woman. She was a young widow who had recently come to know Christ.
We met in a room that was about 10 by 12 which doubled as her living room and bedroom. She had a small metal framed bed with pieces of card board that served as her mattress.
That evening we squeezed twenty-two men women and children into the room to have a time of praise and worship. It was truly a glorious experience as we sang together, prayed together and as I had the opportunity to open the Bible and share a message from God.
It is times like this that I truly treasure and will always remember.

I love this....such a wonderful worship experience! And people here complain when they have to sit "close" together in church!
Wow--that's so neat!
