I am nearing the end of my first trip to Africa. During the first part of my trip I was at the Amano Christian School in Chingola, Zambia. I may have a few pictures from there, but I haven't transferred them to my computer, yet, so, I'll just say that I was received very warmly. I enjoyed my time there speaking to the staff of the Amano Christian School in their Staff Retreat, starting off the 2024 school year. I also visited with LMUSA missionaries and other staff at the school. I'll get the pictures transferred when I can and tell you more about that end of my trip, later.
I would ask you to pray for Amano, and all of Zambia. I was supposed to actually visit classes and do dorm devotions after school started. However, a cholera outbreak, primarily in the capital city, Lusaka, delayed the start of all primary and secondary schools by 2 weeks.
I was pleased to spend time with Beatrice and Francis Manana in Kitwe. I briefly visited Center for Christian Ministry University, where Francis teaches. I dropped off my load of computer parts there, and enjoyed lunch with some of the staff. These parts will be combined with other components to make computers for CCMU students to write papers, etc.
Earlier today I finished the eight-session series I did with leaders in the Zambia Baptist Association, at their headquarters in Ndola. It was a marvelous experience. We worked together to answer the question, "Why am I here?"--here in this position of leadership.
You can find a few pictures of my time with ZBA folks, here.
