Briyani, fried eggs, tahini with jam, cucumbers & tomatoes, olives, yogurt, flatbread, fruit, cookies and of course - Chai. My family all helped cook and serve a taste of Central Asia to some dear friends last night. Some ate on the floor, traditional K-style, and some ate at the table ... but we had lots of conversation about culture -- things in common and things that are different. It was great to watch my own family join in the conversations helping to
describe life in K-land! I see them share with the same enthusiasm
that Rachel and I have, and that is very exciting. Smelling briyani
cooking on the stove, I felt like I was in a K kitchen again.
Our guests seemed to really enjoy the evening and I think learned a lot
about the people group that Rachel and I got to experience recently.
They left several hours later with hearts tuned to prayer for the people
and especially the women of Central Asia. It also opened more doors to future opportunities to share
and to pray.
