Sunday is a day I will remember forever. God put me in a situation where I had to fully rely on Him and blindly trust Him to lead me in what I was called to do. Our team was put into pairs for preaching at four different churches. I was dropped off at the doorstep of my church alone because Seth had become very sick that morning. without any preparation I preached to 25 Ghanains. I trusted God and He gave me the words to speak and peace despite my nerves. For those who do not know me, I am the furthest thing from a public speaker. I was truly challenged.
Sunday evening our team was invited to be a part of Youth Variety Night. It was a time of praise and worship, games, and encouragement. Our team performed some humorous entertainment, but also recreated the skit from Lifehouse's song 'everything'.
To top the night, Zack gave us all oreos during devotions. If there is one thing that I miss from the USA it's chocolate!
