Missions Teams Arriving

I am so excited about going back to Mozambique. My time in Swaziland has been great. I have made really good friends, and I have learned a lot about Children's Cup and Mission of Mercy. I go back at an exciting time, the Hub [College and 20 Somethings] from Healing Place in Baton Rouge will be coming next week on a missions trip. Then, we will be back in Swaziland for a Pastors Conference. It is huge. There are about 80 Americans coming, but most importantly, there will be pastors from all over southern Africa. God is doing some amazing things over here.

Swaziland

I am so blessed to be here for two weeks. I am staying with great missionary friends, Jessie and Missy; I am hanging out with the best people, and learning more about how to serve the people of southern africa. We played the amazing race with the youth of HPC_Swaziland. They had a great time.

We are sharing God's love and changing lives through simple acts of kindness. Here are some of the pictures of the volunteers at HPC_Mozambique.

Ever Seeing and only now Perceiving

God has grown my heart. I see what I did not see before. Let me preface this: I am a thinker, so I am constantly thinking of ideas, making conclusions about the world. I hardly notice details like what people are wearing, decorations, etc... In fact, my cousin Isaac, the Pastor at HPC here in Mozambique, thinks I am always daydreaming, but I am actually just thinking. He is always asking me if I see certain things on the side of the road, and I always have to tell him no. But something has changed. I see now.

Glamour

I don't have a glamorous job, but it sure is rewarding, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I feel like I am where I am supposed to be. I do feel homesick sometimes, it is no easy living in another country, but it feels awesome to be a part of what God is doing all over the world. The Gospel is being preached here in Mozambique. Please continue to pray for the work here. There is so much God wants to do with us here.

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.
