Tonight at Prayer for the Nations at my church we were so lucky to be able to hear from Pastor James and Solomon, both of the Maasai Tribe in Tanzania and Kenya. It was so amazing to hear their stories of how the Lord has done such great things for them and other Maasai people. They have such free spirits and love the Lord with all their heart. We also got to hear from one of their missionary partners. From all that was said, the thing that I felt most important to take away while preparing for my Uganda mission, was that only Africans can change Africa. The work that we are doing should not be overlooked and is doing great things but what is most important for us is to help to empower those people that want to make changes in the Nation and to support them. As missionaries and volunteers we are not going to be able to go in and just change the Nation but through prayer and preparation we can help set up Africans to make HUGE changes in Africa. I look forward to all the wonderful things Uganda has to bring me in 40 day!
