After a 2 days of travel we are finally all here in Harrismith, South Africa! The trip was long (about 30 hours of travel) but good and we are a little jet lagged but so happy to be here and ready to serve the people of Thrive Africa. Today will be full of some ministry and cultural training time to prepare us to serve the South African people. We will be learning some of the language and meeting our interpreters and then head into Qua Qua to see the place we will be doing kids club and relational evangelism. I can't even begin to tell you how excited we are!..
Below are some ways that you can pray for us today..
- Please pray for our students and leaders- we are all a little jet lagged and need the Lord's strength and energy
- Pray for today and tomorrow as we get accustomed to a different culture
- pray that we will be an encouragement to Thrive and its staff and team members
- Pray that we will see God in ways we cannot even imagine
- Pray that God will open the hearts and minds of the kids we will be doing kids club with and the people we will be visiting in their homes as we do relational evangelism
We are so thankful for all of you! keep checking this blog- some of our students will be posting something later on tonight!
