Motorcycling through Kinshasa

This letter is from Patrick, chosen by the will of God to serve Jesus Christ. I am writing to the Church in Orange & to you who have been called by God to be his own Holy people.

We do not have much time so I will have to keep it short.

As I walked off the plane into the bathtub that is the air here, I was excited & amazed. When I walked up to the officals who check your passport, I opened mine to the page with my Visa & showed it to them. It was immediately taken from me & I was escorted away from Michael & everybody else. Long story short...God is good, HE gave me the words & courage to prevail, after some convincing I was let go with my baggage & not having to pay any fees.

Church Sunday was amazing was... 12 Kilometers down a 4x4 trail into the bush we came to Nselo a little village in the middle of nowhere. We joined the locals for 3 & a half hours of the most amazing worship. Rejoice my brothers & sisters, here in Africa the truth is being preached, I received an amazing, convicting message about Holiness. I was so blessed. I was also honered and humbeled with an opportunity to address the congregtion on behalf of Jesus.

Today we visited many schools & helped children to get an education for the remainder of the year. We met so many great kids ...what a awesome day. We also purchesed an 175 Enduro motorcycle to take out to Mato tomorrow (farm) . 2 wheels is the only way to roll in this crazy city, I had a blast flying through Kinshasa. Praise the Lord.

There is SO much more to tell but I do not have the time. I miss you all & will see you soon.

Peace,
Patrick
