Albertine

Is such a rad song. You know a songs good when it makes you cry!

Although the songs about Africa, I first heard this song when I got back from my missions trip in the Philippines.

These words are so true for those of us who have actually experienced the culture, poverty and desperation of those who are in dire need of love, compassion and most importantly communication of the gospel.

However its also important we don't forget these experiences and share it with our friends at home ... I don't know who said it or remember it word for word but theres a statement along the lines of "Passionate people make others passionate"



...I don't even know if this blog makes sense... I'm pretty tired, brain drained and avoiding the gazillion assignments i have for uni! ... anyhow I hope it makes sense to at least some of you and find it inspiring/encouraging!

The song is cool, it reminds me so much of my time in Uganda...

Very challenging, we've been trying to motivate our church for ages to get out and get alongside the community activities, because we're responsible and faith without deeds is what?? Exactly?
