The delicate and tricky plant to grow is the Artemesia plant, which is very strong in fighting malaria here. FYI: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemisia_annua http://www.survival.tv/documentaries/malaria.phpThe big day arrived for Antonio and Rabia to tell all to their family and friends. Over 200 were invited. The setup a tent on the property and made preparations for lots of food!Some of the first arrive to greet the Antonio and Rabia.People showed up from the church, the neighboorhood, family from a long ways a way, friends... Everyone wondered, 'What is this for?'Antonio asked that a message be given from Mark 5 on the woman with the issue of blood healed, contrasting Jesus' healing with the witchdoctor's of their culture.Antonio and Rabia then told their story, which no one had heard. Several years ago Rabia had an illness. They went to many witch doctor's. They promised that her dad and mom would bless her to get well with certain rituals. She never did get well. So she finally decided to completely trust God alone, live or die, and go to the hospital for a surgery. She's living proof of God's faithfulness and the false hope of African traditional religion. The details of this whole story are VERY amazing! The family is now pondering their testimony and God's message.The church also acted out a song of calling a drunk to leave his old life.We sat the the table of the `kings` of the family and brought out their best. Wow!What a day of joy for them. They confronted their worst fears in exposing the hopeless of the religion of faith in their ancestors and healers. They no longer have the foreboding fearful dreams of their dead ancestors begging for food and clothing, and seeing their income disappear to put food at a tree for the ancestors `spirit` away and eat. They are no longer bound by drunkenness and immorality. They are FREE!!!They are a transformed couple!
