A time to worship…

Dave has shared his impressions of our special worship service with the Quichua… here are some of mine.
I was drawn into worship gently by the evident yearning of the worship leaders for God’s presence, their recognition of their need for Him, their desire for Him. By the passionate involvement of the congregation singing, by a picture of a dove above the pulpit area – a recognition of the Spirit’s presence.
I was struck by the pre-offering message by the Pastor of Tres Lote, he encouraged giving by reminding the people that they had enough, able to grow their own food, firstfruit goes to the Lord… don’t want to miss the blessing of God by being stingy. He mentioned our visit to them, how we are helping and giving sacrificially and I felt very humbled… they have so little by our standards, we have so much.
Dave shared all about the content and also his heart response. I just wanted to add that the people in their humble, gentle ways touched me deeply. Over and over they gave thanks, for us, for all God provides, we will only be in their lives for such a short time – but I trust they will affect me forever. T
