Luka's hospitality

Luka is very passionate about hospitality.  When we are in the villages, he is always the one making sure that everyone is receiving proper treatment from the host.  He welcomes everyone to come eat with us and ensures that all have enough even before he eats.  This is certainly not lost at his house.  We went tonight to finish off the gift of fresh fish we got from Kassidi, our tour guide.  Luka and his family welcomed us like family.  Rehema was there to usher us in and we were greeted by Luka's friend and cousin, Andrew.  The guest is not made to do any work except for that which, without would make the time awkward. Luka runs around the house with Emy making sure all is in order and he parades the kids in front of us to welcome us.  The food is brought out by Emy and Rehema and it is delicious.  Luka serves all of us first and brings us cold soda.  Then he converses with us while he runs around caring for the other among them.  The kids from around are welcomed to enjoy the amazing food.  No one goes hungry when Luka is around.  He embodies hospitality.  We were even welcomed into family devotions.  Things like this make strong bonds.  We were all brought to tears by the end as we are leaving soon and all know that God exists between us.  The welcome was incredible both toward us and the others all around.  There is abundance and care in the kingdom.
