Naya Mona
Amaka yenu Tata
Inkumbu shenu pale nebo
Yaweh

Namipela amalumbo
Yaweh

I have seen Your power Father
Your mercy upon me Yaweh
In Your presence is fulness of joy
I give You praise Yaweh

....I love this song. It's my favourite zambian worship song in Bemba. On our last sunday in Luanshya our team taught the church the song "Blessed Be Your Name" by Matt Redman. That song took on a much more powerful meaning for me while being here in Zambia. Because I have seen them praise God in the face of diseases that are eating away at these beautiful people. They loved it!
Chrissie (one of the other 2 leaders with me) & I stayed with Pastor Jacob and his wife Annie and their adopted children this weekend. I didn't want to leave. We had such a great time. They were so incredibly hospitible.

There is so much to say and I'm having trouble limiting my words.....I don't know where to start this week. I'm overwhelmed by what I have seen and experienced here and it's about to come to an end in one short week.

I think for now, i'm going to sum up with NAYA MONA. I have seen. I have. I've seen God in such a different way in this country. I hope it has changed me. I hope to share many stories with you upon my return to the US.

Please pray for us as we're travelling and spending some time in London. Please PLEASE pray for me as I go through immigration on the 5th of March.

Love to you all.
