Quick update

Sorry we haven't posted much lately.  Our internet connection is painfully slow here so it takes a long time to do anything online.  We also can only get internet in one room of our house.  It is in the pantry, which happens to be the smallest and hottest room in the house, so we try to not spend a lot of time in here.  We'll try to get some pictures up as soon as possible.


The last several weeks have been a whirlwind of trying to get settled and getting reacquainted with our old work here.  I've been out to Freedom Park once to pray with AIDS patients and bring them food, and today I went out to Phokeng to do some electrical on the after school building for the orphans in that community.  It's been great to begin to get back into the swing of things and start to work.  We can't wait to do more here and share it with you in the near future.  We cherish your thoughts and prayers.






Jenny's dad just left on the plane to return to Denver last Saturday.  We were able to take him to the Lion Park.  In this picture I am sitting in the driver's seat and Kendi is on my lap.  The lion spotted Kendi and stared at her as if she was stalking her.  It really freaked me out because I'm sure she's strong enough to break the window glass.  We stayed there long enough to get a few good pictures and then we moved on.

  1. Jenny, we once had a lion stalk my toddler at a zoo. He lunged and everything. Wow it was scary.
    Praying that all the work you are doing is richly blessed.

  2. Maybe she was just noticing the only "native" in the car.....
