Burundi via Twitter - Part 2

Dan and the Burundi team are having a very fruitful, productive time. I've talked to Dan three times briefly since he left 10 days ago. There's so much to be thankful for as God is continuing to draw people to Himself in amazing ways thru the ministry of the local churches in Burundi. Pray for these Brothers and Sisters in Christ who are faithfully ministering, discipling, planting churches, praying for their country to be saved and worshipping the One True Living God!

In case you're wondering, you can follow Dan on Twitter and Facebook -- his Twitter stream automatically updates his Facebook page. Twitter name: @daninreallife. I've compiled his Tweets from the past few days - I love reading them in chronological order, hope you do too! This is only 1/2 of them - more tomorrow!
