Today was very good! We did a tour of some of the Wesleyan ministries near Makeni. We visited a Wesleyan School and the Kamakwie hospital. But probably the most powerful thing today was seeing the Wesleyan missionary graveyard. This is where some of the first missionaries in Sierra Leone were buried. Many of them came to Sierra Leone not expecting to return home. They would pack their belongings in their coffins. But they paved the way for many churches to be planted and for many works of compassion.Something that might be interesting - take one of the missionary names from the stone and do a google search. Include the year to narrow the search. Some of the histories are quite fascinating!
It is great to have so many praying. Tomorrow we visit the village. Please pray for open doors to share the Gospel, and pray that we will be able to show the Jesus Film.
