On this trip, we will be part of an thirteen-member team of volunteers. We will be working with the Teichert Family who have been working in South Africa for many years with One Challenge and have been supported by First Presbyterian Church of Midland through the Missions Ministry. We will be seeing their work first hand through participation with the projects and missions work they do with children and people affected by HIV. We will also travel to Cradock, South Africa to work with the Amy Bell Foundation which has been and continues to be instrumental in establishing schools and children’s homes for orphaned and disadvantaged children in the rural area of South Africa. We are excited about this opportunity to witness first hand the work being done by these two worthwhile ministries. In addition, we are trusting that God will use this trip to expand our vision for the world and use us to help those we encounter.
Homeward Bound
We have started our journey home. We have been blessed with an overflowing cup of hospitality and joy from our discovery of God’s activities in South Africa. Our heartfelt thanks to all who graciously hosted us. From the Teicherts to the Tams and many, many others in their communities we are so thankful for their support and time. To all of the prayer warriors, supporters, blog readers, and commenters, your encouragement was a gift to us. To the teams members, you are the reason missions work. Thanks you for the time, engagement, laughter, and insight ...
