Walking tour


On Sunday evening, we walked around the neighborhood next to the children's home where a once nomadic tribe now lives - many in tents like the one above. We drew a crowd of children that called out "Photo! One more photo!!!" with every step we took.

As we walked around town we had several opportunities to stop and pray for various people. The two men pictured below received healing in their arms as we prayed. In the first picture, the man is shaking hands with his left hand (which is not usually acceptable in their culture as the left hand is considered defiled) to show that strength has returned and the pain he had after having his shoulder dislocated by thieves was completely gone!!! The older man's right arm was locked in a specific position with weakness/paralysis on that side of his body following a stroke. The shoulder gave way and he received more mobility in his arm as we prayed!!! He also felt strengthened to the point that he circled the chair unaided with arms raised in praise after we prayed!!!
