Palm Sunday, Zambia style

Today was interesting. Usually, in CRC circles, our Palm Sunday service involves Sunday School kids waving palm branches as they leave for their classes. Today, WE all walked to the Lundazi prison for a community Palm Sunday walk. C.C.A.P., along with 5 other local churches walked a few kilometers into town, waving palm branches and singing what I assume were Palm Sunday hymns in that distinctive african harmony. It was pretty neat being in the middle of it all worshipping & praising God with other christians on the other side of the world. Afterwards, we went on ANOTHER walk to an honest to goodness castle in town. It was built by the english years ago when Zambia was an english colony. Once we get to a reliable (and fast) internet connection, we will be uploading pictures for this and all of the other posts here.
