After our last visit, it was straight uphill to get out. I'd had the late night the night before at the home where we showed the Jesus Film, and I was unable to sleep that night (I had not slept well at all on the entire trip). That combined with the hike combined with the emotion of the day left my energy completely bottomed out. As I struggled on the way out, we passed a man that was coming down the mountain to his home. He was carrying X-rays from a doctor's visit he had just had for a lung problem. I tried to imagine walking up that steep mountain being truly sick (a lung issue no less) to get to a taxi to take me to the doctor. He stopped and visited a bit with us. He asked us if we liked ginger. He said if we would meet him tomorrow morning at 7:30, he would walk back up and bring us some ginger! We were very touched by his generosity.
Please pray that he was healed of his sickness and that he will be able to recognize that God is the true healer.
Pray that he read/listened to the materials that we gave him.
Pray that he will allow God to use his generous spirit to further His kingdom.
Unfortunately, we did not get a picture of him, but I know the man really touched my heart.
We made it out! We had a beautiful view as we waited for the bus to return for us.
Here are some goats we watched grazing on the roadside.
