| 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.
