South Africa

Hello everyone.

I'm in muizenberg which is right outside of capetown. It is absolutely beautiful here. We arrived at to the Ywam base at 1 oclock wednesday morning and got right into things on wednesday. God is so good. Our trip was really relaxing and was kindof a nice break from the craziness of everything.

We have been doing worship and speaking in a homeless/drug rehab shelter the last 2 mornings. It's been really neat to interact with people that have barely anything. We worship and have a message then they get food for breakfast and lunch.

In the afternoons we help with living hope childrens program. The little african kids are so fun and joyful. They jump all over me and i can't sit down without one on my lap. It's really a great opportunity.

The nature is absolutely gorgeous but the culture is kindof backwards to everything i've known. There are villages of colored people and of black people, basically they live in little 10x10 huts alot of them. Where there should be only one house on the a plot, there are 5-7 huts. I am so excited to get to really sow into the kids and into the adults that we work with. Thank you for all of your support and prayers.

If you could pray for divine appointments and the power of God to be revealed as well as his love in the lives of the people we interact with.

I love you guys.

God Bless
