Day Trip to Sudan

This past week I had a great privilege. First of all I got to travel into Sudan with my oldest son Drayton. We had a great time together and it was great for him to see exactly where and what we are doing with Aid Sudan. I believe the highlight for him was to fly the MAF airplane for a little while and seeing the Nile River from the air. He also got to be with me as we met up with and introduced one of our Moses Project missionaries Mike Maker. 

Drayton and I landed in the town of Nimule and were met by Maker and his brother Makal. They took us down the dirt road back to a church where over 150 people were waiting to meet us. These people had been there over two hours waiting for our arrival and they made us feel so welcomed. I was able to greet these folks and also introduce Maker to them and tell them that he is beginning a Bible school there in their town and we invited all the pastors and church leaders to attend for training. After prayers everyone left the church except the pastors and church leaders and then Maker and I were able to share two Bible stories with them and give them a sample of what they would be learning in the school. All the people were so happy to hear the Word of God through stories and they told us how glad they were that we had come to train them and meet with them. 

It was truly a great day!  We were only there for a few hours but God worked in those two hours in amazing ways. We look forward to see what He is going to do in the future through the training Maker is going to do with the people and through the Bible school.  We give God the praise for everything!
