Worship with Andrew

We had a wonderful night sleep.  we were awakened by the bells tolling for church.  Steph thought the bells would tell us what time it was but after she counted to 28, she realized the bells were signaling the start of Sunday services.  The bells rang for 10 minutes.  Andrew greeted us and walked us to church this morning.  As we entered church, the choir was singing.  The sermon today was on Sadaka, which is swahili for sacrifice.  It is always wonderful to hear the member of the church sing in perfect harmony.  Today we recognized "Rocks of Ages" and "What a friend we have in Jesus".  The church is beginning a building project too.  They are hoping to raise 50 million tshillings ($ 32,0000 American dollars) for a new steeple for the front of the church.  We will arrange next Sunday to make a donation for their building efforts. After church, we walked back to Mwangaza and Rachel had breakfast waiting for us.  We enjoyed tea, toast, and hard boiled eggs.  Steph was able to show Andrew some of her glow software.  Salome has come to greet us and it is wonderful to see her.  Andrew loved his new hat and is wearing it today.  Later we will go back to church with Andrew to help teach Sunday School.  His lesson is on Moses being hidden in the bushel basket.  We will share more with all of you later.  Hopefully I will be able to post a picture soon
