buckets of water, soap, and humble hearts.

God is truly in this place…

What a privilege and honor it was to participate in the Leadership Seminars this Friday and Saturday at Jerusalem Church. Our team gathered with about 75 local church and community leaders to teach on topics such as discipleship, team building, spiritual gifts and even mechanics and computers.

My favorite part came Friday morning after Drew’s talk on discipleship. He spoke about the scripture about Jesus washing the disciples feet and the illustration of a true servant. Our team gathered up front with buckets of water, soap, and humble hearts. As they sang worship songs in Shona over us, every single person from the seminar came up and we washed their feet and prayed over them. What a humbling, joyful, and Holy Spirit filled time. At the very end I looked over and saw Heather washing the feet of a little boy. Talk about a tender moment. As we finished Drew lead us in singing Mat Sura. “Every day, every hour, you are faithful oh Lord.” This song has always had a special place in my heart. And to sing it together after just washing the feet of these beautiful people of Zimbabwe was just amazing. God is truly in this place.
