We are leaving for our second conference in Kigali and would covet your prayers. More students have signed up in the past 24 hours and now we are up to 80 students. Albert said that it is possible the number would increase. Pray that the right people will be there to be challenged to give themselves to study God's Word and apply it to their own lives and ministries. And then to boldly proclaim it in their churches.
We visited the conference site last night, the African College of Theology, as Rick was invited to give a chapel message. He exhorted the students from Romans 12:10 to be devoted to one another in brotherly love. There are several different denominations represented at the school, but evidently it is difficult at times for denominations to join together in something like the Romans Project. Pray the students will find commonality in their shared reverence for the Scriptures.
Pray for Rick and me that we would have the energy of body and clarity of mind to encourage these pastors and future pastors with the challenge of the Romans Project, to make the reading, studying, and preaching of God's Word a life-long goal.
