I am so much excited to report to you that my mission trip to Kpatinga
witches camp on behalf of IHH was accomplished and succeeded.
Seven young people from Shalom Baptist Church accompanied with me. We took
3 bags of maize and 3 bags of local rice, a food donated by IHH.
Upon our arrival the women (Witches) welcome us with a smiling faces and
some of them were singing Christian songs as an expression of their joy.
I cannot explain the full details of the excitment of the women when we arrived,
but I tell you the atmosphere was a joyful one.
After they have gathered, I open the business with a word of prayer and begin to
explain to them why we have come, after that i spoke to them how God love them
and even sent His Son Jesus to come and died for them. My message was "HOPE FOR
THE HOPELESS". I explained to them that even though they have been rejected by
the society which accused and judged them wrongly, yet God did not judged and
reject them, in the camp there is no hope for them but if they accept Jesus
there will be hope for them in eternity.
After that I invited them to accept Christ and almost all of them
responded possitively. I prayed for them and after them encouraged them to have
fellowship with God through prayer and the word.
After all this my local team began to share the food among them. On that
day, many of them had no food to eat and because of that some of them
were in the bush to do a hard labor to get some food, this was told by the
caretaker, in fact he lamented and encouraged us to continue supporting these
vulnerable women. After we share the food the women sang Christian praises songs
to thank and worship God for His blessings on that day. I was suprise at their
local songs.
