Earlier this week Shelia Stovall shared her experience serving God in Africa. Please go back and read about her trips.
Today I wanted to share a few more of her pictures.
2012 Mission Team
And two market girls.
Shelia said about the next picture, "This is one of my favorite pictures. The little boy is wearing the Muslim hat and the cross he made in VBS. Notice the people on the wall. Everyone had been invited inside the compound, but then because of crowd control, we had to lock the doors.
Many people sat on the wall and listened to the Bible stories. Our interpreter Cephas preached to those on the wall and reminded them that the doors
had been open for all, but many had not accepted the invitation and it was too late.
One day, Jesus will return to us, and then it will be too late for them."
Many years we played parachute games at VBS. Shelia said the children in Africa liked it as much as our kids did.
“The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into the harvest.” Matthew 9:37-38.
Don't forget to read about Shelia's trips to Africa, you can read more of her posts at www.sheliastovall.com
Positive conversations with old and new friends. I'd love for you to join me on my back porch.
