Thank you for all your prayers and support I have continued to receive while being here. It really means so much. I am trying to upload some pictures right now to share with you but African internet can be difficult sometimes so we’ll see how it works. To view them, simply click on “Browse My Photos” on the left of the screne. You can see some of the children that have stolen my heart during these past 4 months.
It’s amazing to see everyone on my team grow during our time here. We were all so shy in the beginning, not knowing what to do or how to live in this culture. Now we have all built relationships, found our ministry sites, and even learned a bit of the language. God has been good as he is growing each of our hearts. Sometimes slowly, sometimes painfully, but always faithfully.
I only have a couple more weeks here in Swaziland and then my team will be heading to South Africa for a little debrief before we head home. Please pray for us as our time here is drawing to a close. What I will be praying for is for hunger here in Swaziland. Not in a physical sense. That is already much to common. But in a spiritual sense. The people here know the gospel. They have heard it many times before, but they are not hungry for the God that loves them more than life. Please pray for God to awaken this people to his power and might.
Keep serving to the end. Praying you and the team will finish strong and praying that eyes and hearts may be open to the gospel in this last week of ministry.
Wow. I can’t believe this amazing journey of yours is almost over. I will keep on praying for you until the end. Keep up the good work until the end!
