Okay, so those of you here in West Palm, if you did not get a chance to hear about Jesse's Africa experience you are really missing out! Just listening to the things he saw and the people he met, it inspired me to post more pictures of exactly how the Africans live outside the city.
TRAVEL IN THE BUSH
Riding into the Bush we saw many
people traveling.....
- some by bike
- some by foot
-some by car
- and some by half a car pulled by 2 cows.
COOKING IN THE BUSH
- These are pictures of the huts they use to cook in. Here they have a charcoal fire (their charcoal is just smoldered wood) and they cook over an open flame.... inside..... all year round, and it gets HOT in Africa.
- As you can see there is not a whole lot of room in here for a whole village, so many times they will also cook outside over a an open fire.
-They also pump their water to cook and clean with from the village well about a km away.
Here you see the ladies cooking Nshima (the grits of Africa). This is everyone's favorite food there. Seriously, I only talked to one person there who liked it 2nd to rice. Imagine grits everyday for lunch and dinner......... mmmmm.THE TRUTH
-In the middle of the Bush I took this picture. If you cannot read this, it is a Jehovah's Witness church. This really convicted me that what we are doing through Grace and the project Africa and Asia is needed! These people want to know the truth. And because they typically are not bombarded by materialistic things, they are able to see their needs both physically and spiritually. They are reaching for answers, and they are being reached. Unfortunately it is not always the TRUTH that they find. So, let us pray for the people in these hard to reach places that God would use us, our resources, and HIS word to open their eyes.
