Chris and I had the privilege and joy to get away and attend an amazing conference in Atlanta called Catalyst. The Lord used it on so many levels--we laughed, we cried, we worshipped, we learned, we talked, we prayed and we fell more in love with the author and perfecter of our faith, Jesus Christ. Not to mention it was refreshing to enjoy some long car rides with my husband in a quiet car:)!
Chris and I obviously both have a love and passion for what the Lord is doing in Africa. The Lord continues to stir our hearts for this region of the world. At the conference, they increased awareness and challenged all of us to have compassion on "the least of these" in our world--specifically the 143 million orphans in our world today.
Check out this video (particularly the story of the Kenyan man, Jimmy, which starts at 3:45 minutes). Certainly the most moving event during our conference! I pray that it will challenge you as well!
