We arrived in South Africa this afternoon after leaving Kampala at 7am. Matt, Kristy, Dennis, Chris and Maxie Kamalskie all picked us up. It was so good to see everyone and catch up. We stowed our stuff at the retreat center and went and met the kids during their study time. The sang two incredible songs lead by Azile and everyone was in awe. The grounds here are incredible and it felt like a huge burden being lifted for all the team members who have been going non-stop for a week now. We had dinner in town and got to bed early. We are starting devotions with the kids at 7:45 in the morning and headed into Sweet Home at 9.
Tomorrow is the men's event and we have the material from the Pastor's conference last Saturday, but don't really know the format yet. Everyone is pretty excited to visit Sweet Home tomorrow. It rained all day today. It's cold and cloudy right now and says cloudy and sunny tomorrow with rain again on Thursday. Pray for good weather and less rain. Pray for safety for our team tomorrow in Sweet Home. Pray for good rest, everyone is exhausted, but this place has been very restful in just one evening.
I do enjoy a blog update by Wood! You are doing such a great job keeping us all in the loop! Thank you for giving us specific prayer requests. Praying for the whole group, but especially you!
ReplyDeleteThank for the update! So excited the RH pastors get a taste of SweetHome tomorrow and experience why so many of us have left a piece of ourselves there!
ReplyDeleteIf you see Seno or Teebo, give them big hugs for me!!!
