One of the things that I took away from it was that if you are going to have a lasting impact on people you have to speak their language. Not only are you able to communicate, but doors of trust open up because it shows that you are serious. I know that it is hard to be stuck inside when you just want to be loving on people, but your hard work will pay off in eternal ways. thank you for all that you are doing and for sharing it with us.

I was there with I Choose You and was so stretched and blessed by the experience. I was so blessed to be able to pray along side Brian's mother Regina as she gave her life to Christ and still to this day I pray for healing over her. I know how you feel about learning the language and stay diligent in that because the Lord is so faithful and the fruit that will come from your efforts will not go unnoticed. I believe I met you once, while I was there and I have to say that I have a love for you because you have seen what I have seen and loved the people that I love and the way you are giving you life up to the Lord to serve Him there is so beautiful to me. You will be in my prayers and thoughts! <br />-Kyla Donnerkyla.deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11563886946252557114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8465037592309888835.post-83861702234672540872011-08-12T09:41:59.728-06:002011-08-12T09:41:59.728-06:00I too love Brian already!
