Walk in the Light


Just a quick update so I can hop into bed.  So today was absolutely amazing! We started at Walk in the Light, and the 19 others we joined were so welcoming and wanted to be sure we got the full experience on the first day.  We did 8-9 home visits, talking with people who are HIV positive or have TB.  It was incredible how much joy some of them had to see us in their homes and to hear their stories of sorrow that they still somehow find hope in.  One man who was paralyzed by his daughter’s boyfriend who stabbed him in the back lives in a mud hut.   Over the next few days we are working on building him a new house! I loved praying over all the people and how receptive they were of our prayers.  My favorite home visit however, may have been Pendillia’s house.  She is working full time at Walk in the Light, transporting people to the clinic and was the guide of our Hanniville tour.  The last stop was her beautiful home, slightly bigger and nicer than most others.  She is so proud of it and we were able to pray for her in her home: she loved it! In the afternoon we sang songs with the gogos, another joyous experience! I am loving Walk in the Light and even though our numbers are large, I feel God will have many more things to teach us!
