Things are hopping at Shiloh.  Eight Cameroonians have come in from five countries for a four day conference.  They are sleeping at Shiloh.  Eating three meals per day in our dining room.  Conducting their meetings on the balcony.  And having coffee breaks both morning and afternoon.  

This is not the first time they have been to Shiloh.  In fact we've known the leader of this group since he was in his early twenties, back when he was just starting out in full time Christian work.  We've watched him grow up in the Lord over these past twenty some odd years.  We are always blessed when he comes to Shiloh, whether he's here individually or with his group.

Yesterday while setting the table for their first breakfast at Shiloh, one of the men stopped by to talk with me.  As we introduced ourselves he suddenly said "I know you.  We met at Dorothy Ngo's wedding in Belo."  Wow!  That was over ten years ago, up in the mountains above Bamenda in the North West Region.  And he remembers me?  

It's an honor having this group here at Shiloh.  It's one of the many fringe benefits  of this ministry.  It's true that they are keeping us busy, but it's a good kind of busy.  Serving ones who are impacting their world for our Lord is what we are all about.
