I'm back in South Africa and have been here for over a month! A week after I came, Dennis Hilman joined me and three weeks after that Bob Maki, Calvin and Debra Matson, Dan and Joyce Karnes, Thomas Questad and Jacob Seppanen came.
Before the team arrived, much of my time was spent in planning with the awesome planning committee here. However, I also found lots of time to hang out with my kids and with other friends I made here over the last few years.
I also rather enjoyed doing some gardening--it was a nice way to relax! I put in beans, beets and swiss chard...but now I haven't had time to weed and water, so I hope something actually grows... :)
The team arrived on Oct 18th and since then it has been BUSY! Schools, prisons, hospitals, youth centers, churches, Sunday schools, detention centers, preschools, and private homes: it's been a whirlwind so far and it's not over yet! 
Calvin and Debra left us a few days ago and they are missed! We are now in a new province: the Northwest province where we've slowed down slightly, but not too much. :) This last picture is from the first Saturday adter the team arrived. We held a Sunday School day for about 100 kids from the United Lutheran Church! It was a great day! Please continue to pray for the team here as we continue to work together until next Monday.
