I have traveled thousands of miles and I have met hundreds of men, women and children.I have seen things I could never imagine. It has brought great sadness and great joy as well. Words can not explain.
The children’s home here has the best the staff and the school teachers are so committed to these children. I served the children dinner last night and my eyes were filled with tears of joy. Scripture says: “If you help the least of these my brothers, you have helped me.” When I was feeding these children it was like I was looking into the eyes of Christ. This morning I spoke to the children at their morning assembly and later I taught about Jesus in one of the classrooms.
I was told that when I get back to the United States it would be hard to share about my experiences. I found out that this is true when I was on the phone with Jennifer this morning. I wanted to tell her so much but every time I tried talking I would stop knowing I would cry, not from sadness, but knowing that I have never been so close to God. Physically I am drained and emotionally, I have experienced every emotion I have, deeper than I ever could have imagined.
What cracks me up is I have not arrived in Sudan yet. The Sunday I’m back at Marina Christian Fellowship there is no way I can do justice on this trip in one message. Where do I start? And the trip is only half way.
This will be the last time I personally update this blog. I will have access to a satellite phone in Sudan and will be calling Jennifer often and she will update the blog.
With love,
Pastor Kevin
