When people ask why we go to Africa, when there are so many important needs that must be addressed in our own communities, I often think of my father who grew up in a small mining town in Southern Indiana. When WWII called he enlisted and trained as a medic and spent the end of his time in Europe with the liberation troops entering concentration camps and doing whatever they could in the face of the holocaust. It was overwhelming. The devastation seemingly beyond human help… and yet they reached out and one at a time they did what they could. It would become both the darkest and finest hour of his generation. Africa Matters. It’s the open wound on our world today. HIV, Malaria, starvation, malnutrition, warfare and other unspeakable atrocities have afflicted too many for too long. But Africa Matters. We can help: one person, one village, one nation at a time. Africa Matters: she’s calling to people of conscience, people of heart and love, people of hope to help. The devastation is seemingly beyond human help… yet we can reach out, one at a time, and do all we can. If we walk out on Africa we walk out on our generations call to healing. Africa Matters.

2/23-Eating at a beautiful breakfast buffet in the Hilton, light years away from tonight, we met our host for the Nairobi Crusade, to be held March 2, 3 & 4. We laughed, told stories, lamented the loss of our movie screen to customs… and then we prayed… held hands in the Hilton and prayed for God to release our screen so we could use it to show The Jesus Film. Walking out of the airport at mid-day, wind in my face, Marty and Pastor David smiling HUGE smiles as they carried the screen to the van, we praised God. Giving Him all The Glory.
