Missionary


My sister found several good people who are just arrived in America from Burundi.  They escaped to Uganda and then to the U.S. - of all places - Chattanooga.  Patti brought them to church on our church van, first one, then three, now today six adults and their children.  Patti uses google language tools on her phone to translate (roughly) pastor’s messages.  I found four Swahili New Testaments on Amazon this week and with Amazon Prime, they arrived Thursday in time for my sister to deliver them yesterday.  All six were at church today with their New Testaments.  They didn’t understand much of the Sunday school lessons and the sermon, but they read God’s precious Words to them in their own language for two hours.  They loved our American pot-luck dinner today.  Hey, I loved it too!  Praise the Lord for the internet!  It can be used for evil, but it can be used for good.  Why not find someone nearby and go international.  Just invite them to church.  I think they call that a missionary.
