Made it to Lusaka, Zambia ok. We have completed 2 days of training. Thanks for your prayers.
Here are a few photos and more prayer requests:
Me with a few of the Zambian Campus Crusade staff. Their English is excellent yet there are 73 tribes, 73 tribal languages here! Belief in Jesus is not uncommon and is growing!
Zambia CCC has 26 missionaries in the entire country – all indigenous national Zambians. To learn more visit their web site – cccz.org
My team of four helped equip the Zambian staff with free digital tools and strategies to expand their outreach.
They were very hard workers during the training! National Director Chris Musunda (pictured on right above) was a star soccer player on the Zambian national soccer team for several years.
But the Zambians are also warm, fun loving people as well!
This is a traditional Zambian meal I enjoyed. Called “Nshima”, the white cakes are very similar to grits! See, the South has had a global influence! (We are in southern Africa, of course!) The stew and meat sauce, along with the greens were also quite tasty.
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for Shannon and the kids. There has been some sickness in our house since I left. No fun especially when I am not there for backup.
- Today we travel to Zimbabwe to repeat our training for staff there. Pray for protection, our health and safe travel.
- Praise God for each of the Zambian staff we met and their perseverance through the training. Ask God to multiply their initiatives to reach their country with the gospel.
