This Ryan Cox’s testimony followed by an amazing song sung to us by high school students in a public school in the Soweto neighborhood of Johanesburg in South Africa. If you want to cry definately listen to this; her voice can change a nation. Pray for them to rise up in the midst of extreme poverty, sex crimes, aids, very little parental figures and lack of hope. The Lord says, “blessed are those who are poor in spirit”. Who would think that anything good can come from Soweto but you can witness first hand the power of their spirit in their music. May Jesus use them to change their community.
The words are “Avulekile Amasago”
which means “fling open the gates or heaven’s gates”
hayi hayi hayi x3 then iyo oh amen.
“Thina siphuma emnqamlezweni sithethlelwe izono “
which means “we come from a place of struggle or our sins are washed away.” I was confused as different South African’s said they meant different things. The bottom line is that their worship blessed us deeply that morning as we were very tired and needed a fresh filling.

Just a little shout from me in case you missed it.
In case you miss my scream I tried to teach our Mozambique basketball kids at our clinic before our Assistant coach John Aiken shared his testimony. They did alright. Remember shouting can break the power of darkness. I dare you to try.
Tay–you da man!! Way to go buddy. The trip looks and sounds awesome. I’m mega proud of you.

Taylor,
Your Texas family is extremely proud of you and the ministry that has been provided to the African people through AIA.
We miss you “son” and hope to get together soon. We are proud of you and the road you have taken.

Wow…I love the worship. I love how they worship with all their hearts without holding back, without extra stuff attached. I love their expression to God, their style.
Hey brother, thanks for the call
