Thank you to everyone who encouraged me so much during my break. My family, Concord Baptist, Chattanooga Christian School, and others. It was so nice to be home, but I’m glad to be back in South Africa.


The last few days have been spent relxing, catching up with my team mates, and brushing up on my SiSwati. Ngi funa kufundza SiSwati (I want to learn SiSwati). I went to a township where some of my friends worked last semester and it was good to be back in Africa loving on the beautiful children. Tomorrow we will be using public transport to get to Swaziland.


I’m looking forward to this next semester with great expectaions for what the Lord is going to do. My heart’s desire is for a holy revolution to take place in Swaziland and my hope is that I will get to take part in it.


All my support has come in for my trip. Praise the Lord! Thank you to everyone who has given and prayed.


Please continue to pray. As I mentionsed above, we are using pulic to get to Swazi because our vehicles are broken down. Some of my friends are flying straight into Swaziland because they could not get an earlier flight to meet us in South Africa so please pray for their safety. I know I want to work in the Squatter Camp with the children that live there, but I’m not sure how that is going to look like so please pray for direction. Some of my team mate are not yet sure where they are going to work so please pray for them as well. Thank you so much.


Several people have asked about sending me letters and such. My address is


Michelle Goette


c/o Julie Anderson


PO Box 5526


Mbabane, Swaziland, Africa


They say that letters and padded envelopes get through fine but because of custom, boxes usually don’t make it. I love to get notes of encouragement, drink packets for my water bottle, pictures of people and places back home, clippings form the newspaper or the funnies, or really just anything.


Thank you so much and I’ll do my best to keep you posted.
