Sunday Worship…Maasai Style

We had been looking forward to the Sunday service because some of the people on our team had been two years earlier and couldn’t stop talking about how good it would be.  I was worried it might be like a movie that everybody talks up and then when you see it, it just doesn’t live up to your expectations.  But It was everything I thought it would be and more.

The Lord showed up in a huge way!  First, there was the Maasai choir who walked from Tanzania.  The way they sang and danced just blew us away.  Second, was the worship.  Once we started to worship we were all dancing, jumping up and down, singing, sweating, and kicking up dust. I don’t normally talk about feeling God’s presence but I could feel God.  He was there with us and I know that worship moved Him because He was moving us.

After  the dust kicked up from all the dancing settled, we listened to the different choirs sing again, each one with a unique sound. Then Alan Sr. and Don shared a little bit about the trip and how grateful we were to be there with them.  Moses, the pastor, asked me to share something too.  I was pretty nervous about speaking because I felt like it would be really hard to put into words what was making our hearts so full.  But the Lord showed up and got the message across.

At the end of the message I got to read them a scripture that we felt like God gave us for Meto which is Isaiah 35.  If you haven’t read it you should check it out…

Anyway, here are some pics from the service, the first pic is of the choir from Tanzania.

Peace,

Alan
