Sorry it took me so long to post about the simbiti
dedication. On November 2 we attended the dedication of the books of Jonah and
Luke in the Simbiti language. It was the first 2 books in their heart language.
There are now books of the Bible in all languages getting scripture
translations at our office.

It was a dreary rainy morning and a little cool. It was
great that it wasn’t so hot but would have been nice to have sunny weather and
have the dedication service outside.

| Thhe things on the guys legs is an instrument. It sounded like there was rice inside |
It all started with dancing outside the church. It was so
much fun watching them dance and play their traditional instruments.

| One of two choirs, they love color |
We then moved inside the church for the 3 hour dedication
service with lots of singing and dancing. The kids did great during the
service. Because the church was also the school, there were lots of kids in
attendance as well.
