Auctions and ladders

This morning was another early start as Theo arrived to take us to the cathedral to the English language service. Most of the English speakers had gone off to Kigali for a wedding. However there was a large contingent from the two schools who were boarders. There were very lively choruses and preached on Holiness
 Then off to the little church at Gisakura. When we came the first time this was held under a tree with a tarpaulin to  keep out the rain off now there is a tiny wooden church with a leaky roof. They are in  the process of building a proper brick built church. The worship was very different with a single drum and energetic dancing. They are very busy collecting money for their new church so they had two collections one for the poor people and one for the church.   Ian preached again on Isaiah 53 using a simple illustration about how Jesus bore our sins and sicknesses and gives us his righteousness using a ruck-sac and 3 bricks. After the church someone had brought some  passion fruits which were auctioned for the new church.
