Kristi had the opportunity to speak at a local church for their annual Women's Day celebration.  Churches here in Burkina choose one Sunday a year to focus on celebrating the women of the church.  Women do all the singing, teaching and running of the service and then feed the whole church as their guests.  It is a day that means a lot to women here in Burkina Faso.  

Kristi was asked to give a message for this special day.  It was her first time teaching to a group in French! She did a great job.  A woman from church translated into Jula for those who didn't speak French.  All services here in Burkina are in multiple languages.

Above is a picture of the church, which meets on the pastor's front porch.  We are praising God that they are currently building a church building and it is nearly complete.  Below is the women's committee  with Kristi after presenting her with a gift- a new hat.

Here's the passage Kristi taught on.


Galatians 6:1-10


6 Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. 2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. 3 For if anyone thinks he is something,when he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4 But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. 5 For each will have to bear his own load.

6 Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches. 7 Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. 8 Forthe one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9 And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. 10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.



Blessings,
Aaron
