I can't believe how quickly the time has flown. I basically have the weekend, then I am homeward bound.
I went to my first full church service. Friday nights are the "service of power". I was told it would be loud, but I assumed it would be like other Latin American services. They are always louder than US services, but not unbearable.
If you have ever been to Latin America and been in a church service and thought it to be loud, I am here to tell you -- you ain't heard nothin' yet! First, we worshipped with three singers, bongos, drums and a keyboard. The two guitar players weren't there this time. Just when I thought that praise and worship was finished after 45 minutes, Pastor Domingo got up and started to lead more worship for another 45 minutes. Then he preached on Job 22:21-28 and gave an altar call. The service began at 7:30 and I didn't get back to the hotel until 11:00.
Now, having said all of that, the worship was Spirit-led and Spirit-filled, as was the sermon. I don't want anyone to get the impression that it wasn't a good thing because it was very good and very God-led.
This afternoon I am directing the lesson for the young people of the church. Please be in prayer from about 4:00 until about 6:00. I'll post again this evening to let you know how it went. |
