I’ve been sitting, standing, dancing here for almost four hours now in Victory Mission Church in Kabuga, Rwanda, and now I’m listening to a Ugandan man preach in Lugandan while having it translated into Kinyarwandan, the Rwandan language. I’m really not sure what they are saying, but they seem really excited. I found out he’s preaching from Isaiah 51:9 and following. It must be about awakening, being rescued, and entering God’s presence with joy and gladness. He laid the microphone down in front of me and almost sat on it. I’m not sure what that’s about. If the pastor and the translator used this tone in a conversation with me, I’d probably be afraid, but in the context of an African church, it only means they are almost excited about preaching.
I should pray for the gift of interpreting tongues.
The pastor’s suit is nice.
