Women On Fire

This past Sunday I went with several of our women staff to a "Women on Fire" meeting in Nsongwe Village. Nsongwe is just about 4 km away from our base and we have a great relationship there with the people and churches. During the rainy season, several groups sprung up including Women On Fire, where women from every denomination gather together to worship the Lord and share about Christ. I found myself in a hot classroom as the african sun was setting immersed in the local worship. All I could do was praise God for that very moment and how amazing it was to be in His presence with such an amazing group of women. You could see the desire for the Lord in them and they grew in their revelation of who He is. So many times the women in churches are looked over as the local churches are led by the men. These women have been encouraged to stand up and serve God with everything they have and are. It's amazing to see such passion and I am encouraged by all that God is doing in this place.
