Last week Josiah and I were able to do a quick two day river trip. We were able to briefly visit 4 villages and be at one very important elders meeting. We had a really great father-son time on the trail and in the boat together. This was Siah's first time spending the night in a village and he was pretty excited about it. He was a real trooper as he insisted on carrying his own pack, drinking his own mazato and watching over the sloth that we caught.
The believers were happy to meet our 7 year old boy and gave him a "Piwicho" (parakeet) which has since become a very dear friend for all the kids. I think he really enjoyed himself, although he did fall asleep on the bench as I preached in the night service.... but that's quite understandable..... I gave the third of three long, boring sermons that night. I'm sure it was tough on him :)
"Someone asked Will the heathen who have never heard the Gospel be saved? It is more a question with me whether we — who have the Gospel and fail to give it to those who have not — can be saved." — Charles Spurgeon
