Well this past month we were in Swaziland, we worked at Elshaddi Childrens Home.
We got to Swaziland on a Friday and then drove up to our ministry site, to get there we had to turn up the mountain and go by dirt road. And we kept going into more and more beautiful mountains then we came to the little village that is made up of Elshaddi and then the even smaller village that is our housing for the month at a little mountain top with a view that no words can describe, but I can say God is a incredible creator, he made such things that we just don’t understand and yet he built the mountains the sun, oh the sun sets we saw, he made each star, to see the southern sky from this mountain was amazing. God blessed us so much this month with his creation.
I will put a photo up but sorry its just not going to do it justice.
We lived with two other teams, that was awesome, I lived in a house with 8 other guys, it was like a repeat of ‘manistry-month’ for us. We got to cook all the food ourselves; dishes like, shepherded’s pie, squash soup, and meal one that, well, that one will get its own blog.
What was it like with other teams? It always has ups and downs, we had lived with one of the teams before so it was good to be with them again. The other team has some incredible woman and men of God.
