Our music class ended well.  So you don't think the topics were just history, we also taught about evaluating the songs we sing in church, arrangements of instruments, choirs, songs in a service etc.  One of the pastors asked us to come do a one day music seminar at her church later in April.  Great pastors to work with and great connections!

Last weekend we held a health screening and evangelism day at my church, Oasis of Love PAOG.  There is a Zambian doctor in the congregation and at least 4 nurses.  Christine joined us on Saturday.  We checked people's blood pressure, height and weight for BMI, blood sugar and HIV.  We had a great turn out.  I only know the numbers for Saturday.  We saw 70 people total with 1/3 getting tested for HIV.  The evangelism team had 5 people accept Christ.  Sunday morning there were definitely more visitors in church.  We saw a good number of people after church and had some good health discussions.  The evangelism team normally goes door-to-door on Saturdays but during the rainy season that produces muddy shoes.  They were afraid people were more worried thinking about the house getting muddy than listening to the message.  This was a way to be seen in the community during the down time and is a great touch point later when they go out again.
