Sundays are so much fun - serious, but fun! Sunday morning we were with Pastor Duncan Machemba, his wife Maness, and the congregation of Chigwirizano Assembly of God. Chigwirizano means "together" in the Chichewa language.
Chigwirizano A/G is in the village of Likuni, not far from Lilongwe. Driving through the middle of the trading area is a real trip in rural Africa. People standing on the side of the road were selling clothes, chickens (live), fire wood, fried potatoes, and cooked meat.
In the picture above, you will observe that offering time is blessing time! The group praying above are people that desire to commit themselves to the work of the Lord. The people of this church have a great desire to reach the unchurched in this area.
I preached about the second coming of Christ this morning.
After the service we were invited to the pastor's home for lunch, along with some of the board members of the church. The ladies prepared a traditional Malawian meal that was absolutely wonderful! Fredna and I receive special treatment during these times. Even the fact that we are offered eating utensils when most of the others eat traditionally - with their hands, proves this!
