God is good...All the time...All the time...God is good! This is the call and response which begins each service at Priscilla Street. God certainly was good today. We were blessed with safety. More importantly, two people were added to Christ today. One was a young man who asked us several questions before making his decision. The other was a young lady who was nine months pregnant. We do not do the baptizing. This is due to the heath risks of getting into water. Maybe this is why Paul did not do much baptizing in Corinth.
All in all, it was a good day. We continue to get many questions from everyone. The question and answer session is probably the most important part of our work at Priscilla Street. It enables us to more directly discuss the concerns and any misunderstandings the people may have.
After the session, we had our driver, Abu, take us past the United States Embassy. The Embassy is located in the mountains. It is a fortress and is probably more elaborate than Sierra Leone's Presidential Palace. I told our driver I wanted to make sure he knew where to take us if there was any trouble. He laughed and said there would be no trouble. After a week in the country, he has been proven right. The people have been generally kind and welcoming to us. It has been a privilege to be in their country.
