Not a Solo mission. No one is a Christian alone.
Together – Accompaniment – Mission
Sharing Devotionals
We carried with us the scripture and prayers from the King of Kings congregation with the intention to use them as our daily devotions. However, after arriving in Kilolo, we had an idea: these scriptures and prayers from the Kings of Kings congregation should be shared with our partners and used at the Sunday worship service. The pastor took our idea a step further. She assigned each of the verses that had been sent to Bob to members of the Kilolo congregation. The verses were read out loud in Swahili from their bibles and then we read them in English. We accompanied each other in sharing the word of God, feeding spiritual hunger together.
Blessing Cards
Over 100 blessing cards were made by the King of Kings congregation. The blessing cards demonstrated our love and support for our friends. When people know others are praying for them, they are encouraged to persevere in their faith and trials. When word spread about the blessing cards, we were encircled with people hoping to get a card. Seeing the great desire for these cards, we promised to send more in the future.
