AFRICA TRIP, Day 4

Tuesday, August 12, 2008

It was a great day!

Here are the highlights:

• Orientation to the YWAM base, which involved a tour and learning the heart of the staff who work here…John & Jacinta Mukolwe, “Papa” (Jason) & Mama Choy, and Michelle. What amazing people!
  
• A long walk down a very dusty road to the New Vision Christian school that is being built by YWAM. Hopefully within the next 2 years the school will open to it’s complete capacity, 600 children!!
  
• A trip to the supermarket “Shop Rite” and the local market, where the ladies of the team bought wrap-around skirts.
  
• Cold showers…okay, probably not a highlight, but definitely a part of daily life here. The weather is actually pretty cold here, too, surprisingly! I wear a sweatshirt and long pants most of the time.

Thank you for your love and prayers back home in Washington, Florida, Georgia, Arizona, etc! We couldn't do this without you, my beloved family and friends!
