"The young trees are the forest" - This is a saying in Bemba that implies that it is the children who are the future of tomorrow.
"...The oppressor must be liberated just as surely as the oppressed. A man who takes away another mans freedom is a prisoner of hatred...the oppressed and the oppressor alike are robbed of humanity. "- Nelson Mandela
The people of Africa have been oppressed for far too long. The history of this vast continent and her people is filled with violence, war and hatred. No-one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People learn to hate and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love.
Let's go love on the Children in this violent yet beautiful land; let us be living examples of His perfect love; it is all we have to offer and it's the only means to bring about change, revival, and transformation.
I am honored to be part of such a team as this.

I am excited to be a part of this Africa team and I look forward to returning to Boise, USA. Interesting that I am in Barbados, W. I. now, and this country has it's roots in Africa. I have learned much about the spiritual kingdom through this trip and principalities over nations. There are very strong forces at work. We should never underestimate the power of our enemy.
