The week concluded on Saturday with a special program, the Festival of Nations. Flags from around the world were carried into the room by children of ACTION Brazil's staff as the evening opened.
People from area churches had been invited to attend as well as dress up in the clothing of unreached people groups. I dressed in a selwar chamise, the attire of the Gujaret, a minority group from Indian within Zambia.
In the picture to the left is the international director, Nelson Reed, wearing his 60th birthday gift from the ACTION Zambia team~the clothing of an Ngoni chief. Nelson was a great sport and wore the outfit, proudly playing the part. Also in the picture is Bestone Chileya, our good friend and AZM's board chairman. The evening concluded with almost 20 young people committing themselves to answer the call to missions, a very moving sight.
Please pray as each delegate returns to their home country, that God would bless their ministry and labors.
