2nd Week in Nkobe

Things are starting to settle in. I am getting adjusted to the time change, the new foods, and the cold showers with little water pressure. I love it though. I've been given the responsibility to take over the youth group, and to help everyone with organizing. It almost overwhelmed me with all the things that need to be done. I will take it one day at a time, and do my best.

First Visit to Nkobe




I went to the Carepoint this morning. It took us 45 minutes to get there. There were sand roads, and pot holes the size of a small bathtub. Lots of great photo opportunities. Here are some of the pictures. If you are interested in seeing more pictures, you can check out my albums on facebook.

Pictures of the Apartment and some traveling

This is me in the apartment.




All of us in Joberg waiting for a "delayed indefinetly" plane.
























I arrive in Maputo, Mozambique

So, I arrived Saturday morning at 2:30. I spent a total of 32 hours traveling. Its a completely different world down here. I love it though. No air conditioning, milk comes in a box, and everything sounds expensive. It costs 350 something for a pillow. Its like 15 bucks, I think. I will be posting pictures shortly.

A Wonderful Life







I have a wonderful life. Sure there are hardships and trials, but I really can't complain about anything. I give God all the Glory for this. I am blessed. Its not about shoes, outfits, and cars, its about people. The materials will fade away, and what I have left will be people. You can't buy love like that. I am about to leave this country for a while, and the one thing I will take with me are those relationships. Here are some pictures from my going away party. I have never felt so loved by people in all my life.
