We had the joy of spending Sunday October7  with Aya Baptist Church on Metu Mountain (Appalachian size). We left early in the morning. The road was very difficult and required 4 wheel drive. Usually roads here are bad because of  ruts made during the rains. However the road up Metu is bad because it has some very steep inclines with loose rocks.

We made it to the church about 9:30 and the service started at 10:30. It lasted until 2:30. There was lots of music, Sam preached once and I preached twice. We  then broke for lunch and after lunch Abraham preached and I shared some final words. I first visited this church in 2010 when we had a three day conference there. Since then the church has grown and has planted two churches in neighboring villages on the mountain. I am excited about RAU’s developing relationship with these churches and many others.

Thank you for all your prayers!
