We are always encouraged and blessed when we see the captured attention of different age groups as they listen to the Bible stories, hold the books in their hands, or study the illustrations.
THE “HEARERS OF THE WORD”
No matter how far we travel or the size of the group, we are blessed by great “hearers of the Word.”
AFRICAN PRAISE AND WORSHIP
Certainly, a very special part of our travels and ministry has been to participate in and enjoy the traditional African worship experience. There is dancing, singing, drums and much expression and joy. Unfortunately, these few pictures don’t adequately tell the story.
