In the jungle the mighty jungle.... Day #2

Today was filled with sore muscles as we made our way to Shongweni. Everyone is having a wonderful experience. Those that are here for the first time can't stop talking about how loving the people are and how much fun the children are. I am so excited for them. We stopped off at the houses for a brief moment so I finally got my hugs from Skhumbuzo. He is such a bundle of joy. Everyone absolutely fell in love with him and he gave one of his special hugs to everyone on the team.

I stopped in to see Gogo Toli and she was so happy to see me, she gave a shout of joy as we embraced. I gave her yet another picture that I took on my last trip in November. She was happy to meet the rest of the team. Next we went to the Madondo home to see the garden. It is just wonderful. They are growing quite a nice variety of vegetables. Many of the homes have cleared a small area in the front where some folks are planting flowers. The community looks great and I am so glad that God has blessed me to help make a difference in the lives of so many.

Finally we headed down to the house. Today we started on the roof and started back washing the interior walls. We always have lots of help. The therapists are doing a wonderful job as well. They had a womens group in the morning of 20 and a kids group of 25. They have also had the opportunity for home visits. The people inthe community are very receptive to them and have been sharing quite a bit. The all miss Pastor Majola.

Please pray for Pastor Majola's sister Entebeko. She is very sad because she doesn't know what her life will be like. Pastor Majola was everything to her. All in all another good day in Shongweni. We went on a game drive at the Tala Game Reserve. It is always amazing to see the animals in settings like that. We saw giraffe, impala, inyala, wildebeest and the white rhino. God is amazing! We ended the evening having dinner under the stars.
