Dear Friends,
When I first saw the attached photographs that had been taken by my colleague PAUL
in Mozambique, I must confess that I did not pay much attention to them.
Having spent many years operating in the bush it was a case of “Ho hum, been there
done that etc”, just another little tribal structure.
It was only when I actually checked with Paul that I found out that this was a church !!!!
A church where people come in by foot from many miles around to worship and praise the
Lord. !!!! Praise the Lord indeed for such commitment.
This is a fully blown, functioning church where, services are held, the Good News is
relayed and people confess their simple, uncomplicated faith.
Paul tells me that the church measures around six metres by three metres and was built
when the previous structure of mud bricks “melted” in the recent rains. The church is
about 40 miles north of the town of Lichinga in Mozambique.
Yesterday when I went off to my local church by car, and then sat in the heated pews
before the service, listening to the choir singing accompanied by an electronic organ,
followed by a full barrelled pipe organ during the service, I could not help reflecting
on and thanking the Lord for the wonderful facilities that many of us take so much
for granted.
In many aspects, it is so easy to be a Christian when you have all this at hand.
blessings
Andy
