We began our day early, meeting at 8:00 to pray for our day, and then we went to tour the Pyramids and Sphinx. We were all in awe as we viewed the Pyramids, rode camels, and walked deep into one of the pyramids to view a tomb. After our morning of sight seeing, we had lunch on the Nile and then went to the church to meet with sponsored children from slum areas. We were blessed to be able to sing Christmas songs, have David share the Christmas story, Kelly share her testimony, and watch Miller come out dressed as Santa to help distribute gifts. It was a great opportunity for the team to be able to interact and play some with the kids. After a short rest, we then returned to the church for an orientation to Egypt and the church. We learned many things about how the Lord is working in lives of people in the Middle East and Egypt. The church we are working with has a wonderful vision for growing the Kingdom. We finished the evening attending an Egyptian church service, where Len, Miller, and Daryl had an opportunity to help serve communion. Once again, we enjoyed a Lebonese meal around 9:30--struggling to stay awake (we are still getting over jetlag).
