Today was the last day in the community. We only had a few things left to do on the house....painting, hanging the doors and putting in the windows. So we jumped right in and worked diligently to get things finished on time. We had a treat today. Sue Johnson who works with Habitat for Humanity South Africa came by for a visit. It was wonderful to see her.
We finished up about 2:30 pm and got together with Fanie, Musa, Innocent and lots of the children for a group picture. It was a sad but also a happy time. We've made lots of new friends. We then headed up to the houses that were built last year to do a community clean up. All of the children jumped in to help, even Skhumbuzo. We played and worked and laughed one last time. We will see them once more at church on Sunday.
What a wonderful week this has been. The team was awesome and we worked hard to get the house finished. We had such great fellowship with the people of Shongweni.
