As I seem to spend every Thursday afternoon persuading people to seek the Lord Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, I thought it a good idea to locate a decent local church to send them to. So after a quick recky on Tuesday, with new girl Maggie, Natasha and I headed back to Kajjansi on Sunday, to check out Kajjansi Presbyterian Church.

As you can see, the church notice board is rather attractively coloured, with plenty of activities going on. The pastor, Francois, informed us that the church has been going for fourteen years, but I'm not sure they have had their building for that long. There is also a Nursery School attached to the church, catering for local children - a few of whom, also attended the service.

On the way, we passed Steven, in his shoe box stall, and enquired if he would come with us. He said he would, but never showed up. I guess he didn't want to leave his stall at what he sees as a busy time. On the way back, we passed him in Francois' car. We stopped and asked where he was, and he threw his arms in the air! Francois told him he would fetch him next week, now he knows where he is!
Still, Marselles turned up - after 8hrs of night shift security just around the corner. He had his ESV Bible, although his spoken and understanding of English is not that good. He sat with us through the service and I helped him to find the passages. The people in the church were very warm and friendly, so hopefully, he'll feel comfortable enough to return on his own, next week.

This local 'boda-boda' driver attends the church with his family - and just think,
Natasha insisted we take separate bikes! (Notice how his wife even sits side-saddle!!!) |
