Many Times Blessed

This morning at church our Team Congo had the amazing opportunity to be prayed over in  five services by our congregation. Words can't begin to describe how much each of us felt the love of our brothers and sisters during those prayer times. I cannot stress enough how important it is to be covered in prayer when embarking on a trip such as this. In my past experience on short term teams, I have found that you really feel the prayers. There are moments you just stop what you are doing and feel the power of the prayer that someone has just expressed to the Lord on your behalf. It is a calming peace that suddenly washes over you- it is quite amazing.
We are blessed in so many ways by so many people who touch our lives. This morning was an excellent example of this. Several people came up to us after each service offering an embrace, words of encouragements and promises to pray for each of us.
