We got to Church early today so we could practice with the worship team before the service. Turns out we didn't practice really (maybe once through right before the service) but we stood in a circle at the front of the church and sang and prayed for the service, the congregation, the pastor, and the community. It was a beautiful time of worship as we held hands and lifted our voices together!
The service itself was beautiful, an energetic spirit-filled time of worship. We played for the offertory, which went well, and then the pastor went up to do the message. It was about unity in the church and the scripture was from 1 Corinthians 1:10-17. It was a brilliant message and I believe God really spoke through him!
After that we went to lunch with Peter and Wendy as it was there last Sunday before they returned to the UK. We went to a restaurant called the Mediterranean I believe. It's an Italian place and it was kind of weird because there were a lot, A LOT, of white people there. Compared to Togo and Ghana, I've seen a lot more white people here.
That's pretty much all we did today, but those two things practically took all day because we didn't leave church until probably 1:30 or 2 and then we didn't get home until 4:30 and the sun sets at 6:30. So, we just hung out at the apartment the rest of the day.
Thank you for your prayers, they are greatly appreciated. I'm still a little out of it, but it's getting better.
I love you all so very much, and I miss you dearly!

I love your blog, and being able to hear about all you are doing:) It is so cool that you got to sing at their church. To bad it's not recorded, I would love to see their service and you singing at it. Anyways I miss you, and I will be praying for you. -- Jaclyn
Good Morning Daughter! It sounds like you had a great day of fellowship & rest. I would also like to see how our brothers & sisters in Christ worship in Africa. Look forward to hearing how your week unfolds. It will be exciting to see how things come together at the school. Love you.
