Laying Hands

The only Sunday morning I spent in Kenya, I visited a church plant that had nothing but a lean-to made from sticks and grass, and bamboo stalks for pews. It was a life-changing experience. It's hard to take yourself and your local church seriously after seeing these people with nothing worship like they have everything, and nothing to lose.

This photo was taken at that church as the congregants left the covering of their grass-thatched roofing to lay hands on and pray for the sick among them. Every single person in that community of believers left their seats to get prayed for, and every single one of them was praying for someone else. Unbelievable how selfless they were.
