It's another serene evening here in Franschhoek. The crickets are chirping outside our window, and a cool night wind keeps rustling the trees. Inside the retreat center, the kids are happily watching a movie while our team edits video footage and prepares for our nightly debrief.
The internet connection, on the other hand, is not quite so serene, so we'll have to wait to post pictures 'til tomorrow. But we wanted to check in with all of you back home and let you know that we're alive and well!
Today was another day full of good company, beautiful weather, and lots and lots of laughter. In the morning we put on a makeshift church service, during which Peter and Nicole shared their testimonies, then we broke into our film groups and interviewed the kids about their experiences throughout the week.
Their answers were adorable as ever. They expressed their appreciation for music and their desire to do well in their studies this year. During one interview, 15-year-old Nontando said she loves Bridges of Hope because it brings people from different cultures together and lets them have fellowship with one another.
Let's just say our hearts have been sufficiently warmed.
We can't believe we have less than a week until we return home, and we pray God will work powerfully in every single heart during the time we have left here.
Blessings,
The Rock Harbor team
