I forgot to update the Invisible Children silent sleep out.
It was a good event.
We were excited to see how lots of people were curious about what we were doing and lots of people asked questions.
My wife and I could only stay until 10 PM.
That night, Lisa and I were disappointed in the turnout in Vancouver.
I expected to see a big crowd, however the publicity was late. I only heard about it the day before. We were also disappointed by the number of Canadians there. It seemed that many of the participants were from the U.S.
One of our friends at Vancouver Native Pentacostal Church is going to Uganda next week and will be taking food for these children and will be sharing their faith through introducing people to their culture. I am so excited they are going. They will have a powerful presence there sharing their native culture and what they went through as a people in Canada. We went last night to their presentation of the Uganda team. It is amazing how so many of the participants has experienced major transformation through their faith in Jesus. Many of the participants have experienced deep pain because of their culture identy. However all of them have found a deep afirmation of their culture in Jesus. It is amazing because they can now worship God in wholeness once they found that the way they express themselves with drums, singing and dancing is a glorious gift in worship. It was a great night of worship.
