Well, holy smokes! We’re heading to South Africa. If someone had come up to us a year ago, I never would have thought this was possible. We’ve got the time off cleared by our managers and, more importantly, we’ve got a strong calling from God to go.
Here are some details about the trip as we know them:
We are heading to Durban, South Africa (east side of the country on the coast)
We will be working with an organization called Ithemba Lethu
We will be there for about 9 or 10 days.
Our trip is in early December.
Once we know more, we’ll post more! Please pray for us that we’ll have a supernatural ability to reach the children in the program and effectively communicate Christ’s love. Also, we’re praying that the Lord will bless us with His wisdom in how we interact as a team and as a couple, that we would be a team that works together well and that each of our gifts and talents would be used in the best way possible. May God be glorified in our lives!
WOW! AMAZING. I’m assuming this is a mission trip. Chris & I took our first mission trip together to Nicaragua two summers ago. It will change your life forever. I’m jealous!
