A week ago we had Andy Mills, a dear friend back in Arua for his third visit. He wins the prize for most repeat visits, which is no small award, and we always enjoy having Mr. Andy around. He is a retired business man from Boston who has a heart for sharing God in the marketplace and specifically, God has laid Arua and its' business community on his heart. He traveled with two young men, DJ and Ted, who got a healthy taste of Africa life. After a significant two day Christian business workshop, consulting numerous Aruan business persons and visiting some of our Africa Gospel Churches for worship, we got to spend a morning in the game park. It was an incredible morning, highlighted by a pride of six lions who had just killed a baboon for breakfast. At one point, we literally turned the vehicle off, served up coffee and tea, and ate our breakfast within about twenty yards of them! Indeed, there are some great challenges to serving in Africa, but Jesus is so faithful to remind us of His goodness... and creativity! Hallelujah! Praise God Forever!
P.S. It was not a talking baboon!

Very cool! I would love to go on an African safari. Do you see many balboa trees? I will be in Mozambique May 2010 and I'm so excited!
At least that doesn't imply we are Aslans breakfast! I can't wait to see all of this!
