On Palm Sunday I attended a service at
Moshi Antioch Presbyterian Church. It was such a beautiful service, although I could not understand much because it was in Swahili. The church was founded by a husband and wife from Korea, who were so nice and welcoming! The whole congregation was overwhelmingly kind. During the service the children stared at my pew the whole time, and eventually one little girl came and sat in my lap. My favorite part was singing "I have a friend in Jesus" in
Swahili! At the end the whole congregation left the sanctuary together to the beat of an African drum and then shook every single person's hand as they formed a big circle and sang a traditional African hymn, it was just beautiful!
