So, for all of you who are following my blog, I apologize for the lack of posts recently. This is about the first time I've had internet in almost a week! But I'll give you a quick recap of the last week. Last Friday my grandmother (Dad's mom) and my aunt (Dad's sister, Melanie) arrived with the missions team from Brentwood Baptist Church in Nashville. Its been great having them all here! They are here this week working in each of the townships that Living Hope works in doing construction and landscaping work as well as some pretty great Vacation Bible Schools! I've been able to spend pretty much all of my time working with them this week, taking a break from my regular work, except Saturdays with the Mobile Music Academy. We spent their first couple days doing some tourist things, like exploring the top of Table Mountain and visiting the V&A Waterfront. This weekend we are going down to Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope, the end of the Cape Peninsula, the south western most tip of Africa. We will also get a chance to see the penguins at Boulder Beach and my grandmother, aunt and myself (and a few others) will go to Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens on Saturday. So fun things coming up this weekend. This week though I've been going to VBS in Capricorn, the coloured township where I work with the music kids. Brentwood also lead a retreat for the health care center workers and I lead music for that which was great! It was so much fun singing with them, and hearing them sing some of their songs for us! I'll share more about that later.
Well, I just wanted to let you know what I've been up to lately and once the BBC team leaves (on Saturday) I'll be back to my normal schedule and will have regular internet access again and will share more! Hope everyone is doing extremely well!
God Bless!
