The Package(s) Have Been Delivered!

Flat Jillian and the rest of her team have arrived safely in Pretoria! Thanks for your prayers.  Two ten hour flights, broken up by a longish layover in London, two train rides and one van ride later, we are gratefully ensconced in our lodgings for the week.  The challenge of the day is staying awake long enough to put our internal clocks right for the week.  A small challenge to be certain but a challenge nonetheless at this moment.

As we waited for a rental van, we were greeted by a 1,000 plus student protest on the street, accompanied by full police and swat team escort.  Quite a sight to see, indeed.

We spent the afternoon with Julius and Cintia, pastors of Hope Baptist Church in Sunnyside.  We are looking forward to spending the week serving with them.

We are so thankful for your ongoing prayers.   This is an evening of rest in order to be prepared for the coming week.  We look ahead to the work of a GREAT God who's heart is for the people of this city, this nation and this vast land.

"Not unto us, O Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory, for the sake of Your steadfast love and Your faithfulness" Ps. 115:1
