This is Africa

We are still in Mozambique, and as I am writing this I am drenched in sweat because the computer is in a tiny little room in the hotel that is BURNING UP! We have gone out to the village of Nkobe every day. So far the guys have dug a 40 ft trench, installed a water tank on top of a tower, removed an onld hand-pump from a well and have attempted to install a motorized pump -we're still workin on that one, TIA (read below) and all the time still playing with kids who so desperately need some love and attention. They come to the Care Point to get their one meal a day, but also get fed spiritually and emotionally....this trip has been amazing...Everyone needs to come to Africa and leave a piece of themselves here - EVERYONE. I have plenty of pictures and stories for when I get home. We leave for Swaziland in a cople days, which will be great as well! Please keep praying for us - we are relying on your prayers!

TIA - This is Africa

This pretty much sums up everything here. When something doesnt go as planned - "TIA", when you see something just downright crazy - "TIA". You just have to take a deep breath and say...TIA.

Holla from AFRICA!

We just checked into the Hotel 2001 in Mozambique. Yeah, I know it sounds like a nightclub. Its hot, crowded, busy and crazy but its AWESOME! Everyhthing went smooth getting here, we overnighted in South Africa and even had some KFC chicken. It's gonna be a great trip!

Elevate Pics

So with the first year of Elevate coming to a close, we got dressed up and had the great David Song take some pics for us. I'll post more as I get them, but here is a seek peek.

Christ is Risen

I was in Starbucks this morning, and happened to catch the cover of this mornings Advocate. On the front cover, was the headline "Christ is Risen" with a picture of a cross. I was so fired up to see that! A major newspaper proclaiming the news of the risen King! What a great weekend it's been at HPC.
