Last picture of the last day of this visit to the Yembi village where our daughter, son in law and two children ministered for seven years. A little culture lesson before I end this. The basket which the ladies weaved for me is for my husband food. I am to hang it somewhere outside of the house and put his food in it to take on his hunting trips. No one else is allowed to eat from it. The pig tusk neckace was given to Ace by Andrew from a wild pig he speared. The lady sitting next to me is named Sophi, she has not gotten saved to this date. Her husband, Andrew got saved, he ask everyone to pray for her. The other lady is the sister and she too got saved. There is a Yembi functioning church with elders, teachers and some very strong Christians. Have they faced oppostion? More then we face here in the USA. But they will tell you it is worth is to no longer live in fear of the spirits and to know the creator loves them unconditionally.
All over the world during this Christmas season misisonaries are giving of themselves so that people such as these tucked back in the jungles can hear what we can hear every day if we so choose. They have no choice unless someone goes to them.

THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO VIEW A LITTLE OF CHRISTMAS IN THE JUNGLE.
