Road Trip - Part 2
The Thrive Africa ministry will be we leave for Cape Town (west coast) tonight. Niel, myself and 3 interns are going by land (15 hour drive straight through) while Alece and Rebecca will be going by sky. So please be praying for all of us, but mostly for us in the car. It’s crazy that in the span of a week I’ll have been to both sides of South Africa.
We’ll be there for two weeks serving along side two local ministries. One is called Living Hope, which is a hospice clinic for people who are suffering from HIV/AIDS. The other is a local church that is putting on a youth conference. I’m excited to see other ministries in action in South Africa. Please pray as there will be many opportunities for us to share the love of Christ to these people.
Yes, for most of the time we’ll be working (serving), but as a treat we’ll get to see penguins in the wild, unfortunatly no Shamu.
