Sauobona (hello in Swatsi)everyone!
Sorry I have not been able to write in awhile. Since I have no internet near by where I am living now. So I am in Swaziland and I am living in a village with no running water or electricity. I am the stinky kid this months, hahahaha… My team and I are living in our tents outside of the church we are serving at. Or ministry we do in Ezindwendweni village is visiting the high school and teaching the kids how to stay pure and going to the Elementary school and doing dramas. We do women ministry which I am in charge of, children ministry, and youth. We have over 100 children that come to the church and lean about Jesus!! It is amazing! I have also been able to pick up on the language really fast! Which makes it so much better to communicate. We have also been able to visit huts in the community and pray over families. There is so many sick people in the community, also many hungry children. There is no jobs or money in the community people are dying and are starving. As you know more then 50% of the population is suffering with AIDS. There is no help in Ezindwendweni. We are actually the first group that has been there to this village. They have never seen white people before 🙂 We are a show to them when we walk down the street. Well we walk 2 miles to get to the school everyday back and forth. So we get many stares from the people. But also the people are very nice. I am truly in love with the people in the village.
There is so much that I would want to to tell you, but I only have a very short time here at the internet to write.But please pray for the people there. The youth are very hard people to reach. We invite them to church all the time, but most of them don’t come. But yesterday we had 2 of them come for the first time! Praise God! ALso please pray for my support I am still in need of $1,700.
Here are some pictures of an orphanage we went to for 2 days:
