Awesome Day.....

How Beautiful!

What an awesome day! Deanna taught in the Womens Prison and washed the ladies feet. There were about 40 women and 6 guards. They each received the gifts that the ladies in Albuquerque provided - slippers (flip-flops), nail polish, and pedicure kits, all wrapped in a towel that had the words "Yesu, Talalmelelwa" which means "Jesus, He never fails" written on them with a permanent marker. This was the most amazing day that I have ever had! What a blessing to be a blessing to these ladies and their children. Yes, there were 6 children because the ladies are able to have their children with them in prison if they are under the age of 2. So, they got stickers and candy. Sorry I do not have any pictures because cameras are not allowed.

Today was the second day of the Village Pastors Conference. The teaching was excellent! Mark opened with a morning devotional, Neil taught "Leading by Purity", James taught "Leading by Prayer" and "Leading by Evangelism", and Doug (local missionary pastor) taught "Leading by Studying and Discipling". The teachings were followed by a "Question and Answer" Session outside under the trees. The pastors have been challenged and encouraged in the Lord. God is so Good!
