In the 5 day work week of the average North American, Wednesday is considered “Hump Day”. This is in reference to Wednesday being the middle of the week, and therefore afterwards (Thursday and onwards) it’s all downhill…until the following Monday that is.
Well for those of us on The World Race who left in July, this month was our Wednesday. At this point we’re past the half way point. With 5 (almost 6) months behind us.
Our time in Dzuwa village has come to a close. I haven’t had the ability to work on videos since we haven’t really had electricity! So those should be coming along in the following weeks.
This past month we had the opportunity to really dive into God’s word, encourage one another, encourage the staff at Joy to the World Ministries, as well as a missionary who’s here on her own for an entire year! It’s been a great month and we’re ready to head into month 7!
Later this week The A-Team Remix will be heading from Lilongwe, Malawi to Johannesburg, South Africa. You may remember the adventure we had going the opposite direction at the end of October (if you don’t, you can read/view it here). Our journey back should only take us 36 hours (though it took us 84 hours to go the opposite way).
You may recall that for January we were given the opportunity to find a new ministry contact. After a lot of prayer, and research our team felt called to return to a hostel we had spent a few nights at (prior to “Africa Travel Week 2010”). Our plan for the month of January is to:
– serve at the hostel (they’re doing renovations and other various construction projects)
– holding bible studies & times of worship
– going to nearby orphanages
– plus many other opportunities that are in the surrounding neighborhoods
We’re all very excited about this upcoming month and how God will work through us as well as the people He’ll put in our paths.
Side Note: An employee at the hostel here in Lilongwe has had an amazing experience through hosting World Racers throughout this month. We’re praying that we can meet people similar to Brian in January!
