Sunday, January 27: Love Can Build A
Bridge
Linebrook
Church ended a four-week missions emphasis on Sunday, January
27, with the singing voices of “Lost and Found,” and the sharing
of slide presentations by three of their members who have had
African short term mission experiences.
Nancy Kilpatrick, an
OB nurse at York Hospital, York, ME has traveled to Uganda and
Malawi through “Children Of The Nations.” Sunday morning, she
lovingly spoke in beautiful prose about children who have been
orphaned by AIDS or genocide - children she nursed to health and
counseled. After an outstanding slide show, she fielded
questions about the political climates and the physical and
emotional needs of children in Uganda and Malawi. Nancy intends
to return to Malawi for an entire year to launch a medical
program and establish a mother/baby clinic.
Karen Cameron
and Mitch Brook offered a slide presentation representing their
three mission trips to Ethiopia. Their African tasks included
helping to build a school building, teaching English and music,
performing for the school children, leading singing for Sunday
morning worship, encouraging teachers and hospital staff and
loving the orphan children who live at the Project Mercy
Mission. Karen and Mitch, a married couple, plan to return to
Ethiopia in July with hopes of organizing an Ethiopian
children’s choir.
