African Christians returning to help

I noted that the woman who read the lessons today was African. She had a slight accent but was well spoken.

I thought it interesting that the woman in the morning who did the opening and introduced announcements after worship was also an African Christian. She is youthful yet mature. That is why she got the role.

I do not know anything about the woman in the evening but she too is probably mature. She did a nice job with no fuss. She stayed for the sermon then left early. She was not as young but not old.

I was thinking Africa is starting to send Christians back to us. They do not have to have the title of missionary. Mature faithful Christians are a role model for all of us.

Europe and U.S.A. sent missionaries to Africa. Now they are returning the favor as Europe and U.S.A. need help now.

Many African Christians have a fresh faith that we sorely need here. It is wonderful that they are coming in to help us. We are indebted to them.
