Last weekend we were in Mason City to speak. Saturday evening they had a CELEBRATE AFRICA dinner and evening. What FUN! They had nice decorations and then a wonderful meal. They had gone online to find some genuine African recipes and everyone was game to try. There was an African yam soup, a rice dish, a chicken and garbanzo beans dish and real ugali (Kenya thick corn porridge). We had people play an African version of pictionary and then a jeopardy game. I guess our questions were too hard as they didn’t get many questions right, but hey, they learned something and it was a good evening.
Sunday morning we had a brief time in each service plus children’s SS and half an adult class. We closed the time off with a great lunch with Pastor Tammy and her husband Kelly. All in all, a very encouraging interaction with people who have been connected to us for over 20 years. Thanks Lord!
