I hope this finds you well and know that I am thinking of you and praying for you always. I wanted to give you a quick update about one of the missionary contacts we are currently working with in South Africa. Her name is Mandy Weschta and she has recently completed the discipleship training with YWAM. Four years ago, God laid it on her heart to start a sports ministry in Cape Town and more recently she has decided to expand the ministry to the village of Coffee Bay, Suurbrak South Africa (3 destinations in South Africa). Her aim is to bring the Youth here to Christ and add ‘hope’ to the children’s lives. We have helped pioneer this ministry here over the last month and the kids have been very receptive to the message of Christ and prayer time that the program fosters. She has asked us to contact our local churches to introduce the potential for sending short-term teams here, possibly for 2 weeks at a time or longer. We have produced a DVD that helps to give a better vision for the ministry and we are going to be sending that in the mail shortly. I am not sure if you are looking around for any mission trips, but I wanted to at least let you know about this need for prayer. She is also looking for 2 individual long-term leaders to hire on staff if you know of anyone who might be interested in this opportunity. I have copied her onto this email in case you have any questions for Mandy. Thank-You & God Bless!

We have had 4 teams together and are just trying to spread awareness to help jumpstart the ministry. Please keep covering me and our squad in prayer. Africa can be spiritually tough and challenging, but God has GREAT things planned for us here.
