Conversion Van!




We have a new thrill ride here in Beni - the Conversion Van!!!! You enter an atheist and leave a Christian!



The roads here in Beni are HORRIBLE!!!!! There are several times a day that we pray to God that we make it where we are going. In fact, half the time I think we are driving on riverbeds, not roads!



Therefore, when someone new gets in the van - we ask - "how is your prayer life?" Bye the time we are getting where we are going - they are converted!!!!



It is hilarious!!!!



Well, today I taught my second lesson in Swahili at the Women's Center and it was awesome! I spoke about staying on God's path and that it is not easy, but if you ask Him - he will help you! The ladies were so excited that I had purchased a Swahili Bible to read the verses to them! Also, I got to introduce Meredith to them and was able to interpret for her! It was awesome!



So, Meredith and Grant, my new teammates from United World Mission arrived on Saturday, the 18th, with our Supervisor Kevin. They are already blending in and of course, the Congolese love them! Meredith is a nurse and Kevin will be working with the communications department in video and radio. Please pray for them and their transition!
