We started out by going to see Muumbe's first school. The God Is Able school is currently being housed in 2 side by side houses. They have 200 kids in 10 grades starting at 3 years old to 7th grade. Some of the room were so crowded, the door wouldn't even open all the way! They were even holding class in the 1 car garage!
The kids put on a program for us, singing and speaking. It was wonderful to hear Bible verses being recited, and Christian songs being sung. It reminded me of vacation Bible school!
We then went to see Muumbe's new school that is being built. It is located a couple of miles west of the current school. A 3 room class building has been constructed and is waiting on windows, electricity, and painting to be finished. John from Livingstone came up and installed the rafters and roof. As always, he did a fantastic job!
We then went to Mapalo Pilgrim Wesleyan Church. This is the church that Brian and Brandon visited in 2004 and touched their hearts. We met pastor Samson and a few ladies from the church.
After lunch, we went to visit Pastor Pezo in her home. She told us her touching story of being called to the ministry and planting a church in south east Ndola. When she came to Ndola, there were 2 families in the church, which meets in a school. They now are running about 60 in attendance.
