On the way home

I don't know what time it is back home but in about an hour it will be 1:30 am and we will all meet up and leave to catch our bus to go to cape town. Sorry i haven't made a post in a while but the last couple of days have been incredibly busy. please keep praying for David Wallace and Mary as they are still feeling a bit ill. today we worked very hard trying to do as many last minute things that we could. We had a mad dash at themba 3 but sadly we weren't able to completely finish beacause of a late lumber delivery. It was supposed to show up on monday and it's friday and it still didn't show up. But we vastly improved the center by building a fence with two gates, adding new siding, and making the building more secure. We also had to take back our rental cars, one of which was broken into a day ago by having the window smashed out. Luckily we did not have any thing inside to steal. But we did have to pay for the window. Also, if you read the neno's story post you read about the conditions that this boy and his family live in. Their house was leaning so badly that it was in great danger of falling over. It took the whole team, but we were able to right the house and add some shear strength to it. It now stands upright and is not in danger of collapse. Neno's mom was so happy that she was crying. It was so great to provide some security to their lives and show them that the Americans and their God really do care about the people in the squatter village in Thembaletu. All in all the trip has been an amazing journey that we have all seen God move on. We've all grown and have been stretched sometimes painfully. And even as i right this with tears in my eyes i know that we have changed many lives here in Africa. It breaks my heart to leave knowing that there is still so much that can be done. But we will continue the ministry any where we go and will always remember the stories of how God worked. There are so many that we don't have time to type. So all i can say is God bless and pray for a safe trip home. See you all in about two days time.
