Assembly

Last night we were asked to hold worship for the students at the Academy at the conference headquarters about 15 minutes away from our hotel. We prepared a couple special numbers for them and several of the students presented practical truths on how to become best friends with Jesus. We had a few technical problems, but Luke fixed it (figures...) and we were able to show the students a portion of Steps to Christ in Song. After the meeting, we took the opportunity to practice speaking Bahasa and the students enjoyed meeting us and practicing their English. One of the girls asked Ceri if she could touch her blonde hair and they were happy to find out we lived in dormitories as well and really had a lot in common. One little boy, maybe 6 years old, came running up to the van just before we left and handed me a lollipop. They were very happy and friendly and waved goodbye to us until the buses were out of sight.
