An Acrostic Poem

                              Amiable
                              Festive
                              Resilient
                              Inviting
                              Caring
                              Authentic
                              Numerous

                              Beloved
                              Evangelistic
                              Lively
                              Interactive
                              Expressive
                              Vocal
                              Enjoyable
                              Rustic
                              Synchronized

Note:  We have been privileged to have several months to become friends with the African believers here in  Nyakato.  The local church has a choir which practices song and dance almost every afternoon for two hours.  All the ladies have the same dance movements, and all the men have their same dance moves.  They line up in several straight lines to dance and sing.  They also wear coordinated colors when they sing and dance during a church service.  This is typical African worship.  Also, after each service, the clergy goes out the door and stands there to shake hands as all the people go out the back door  in order together, and they shake hands with every person that attended the service, forming a large circle outside.  Then they all pray together outside.  This creates a closeness and inclusiveness for each person present.
