My week...
- I played miniature golf the other day, and I got not-last place. With the closest course three hours away from us, I don't play very often... I was delighted just to not come in last place!
- On the Fourth of July we took our interns up to Johannesburg for the day. They enjoyed the chance to walk around a mall and catch a movie. Then we took them to our favorite restaurant and to see the live production of The Lion King. A-mazing!
- Remember my new Bible? Uhh.... yeah. Haven't really started using it. My old one is too "flannel-PJ-comfy" to give up just yet...
- The teacher strike finally ended!
- Niel ate (with a small bit of help from a friend) a whole chicken at Nando's today. It was an impressive feat!
- Friday afternoon was a bit sad for me. When we arrived at Hope House (the interns' orphanage outreach), I learned that two-month old baby Hope had passed away. I think it was the flippant way the caretaker told me the news that made it hit me so hard. I am grateful to have had the chance to hold, care for, and love Hope during her short life..
- We spent this afternoon driving through Qwa Qwa and across the border into Lesotho. It was freezing outside, but the sky was beautifully clear. Made for some great pictures.
- Tonight was an interesting one. Full of prayers and tears. And reassurances of God...
