This is a verse I have been praying over our ministry here in Swaziland for a few months, and some pictures! Jeremiah 33:3,6 “‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things which you do not know.’..’Behold I will bring health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.'”

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up. Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; but how can one be warm alone? Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.   I’ve had the opportunity to start building a relationship with this wonderful family. There is a grandmother named Gladys, her daughter Candy, and Candy’s son...

So the following are my thoughts and feelings after returning from a home visit a couple days ago.  A couple friends and I are getting to know this family really well and I just adore them and I felt so heartbroken at the fact that we’re going to have to leave them, probably to never return again. “Where has my heart gone?

They’re all so precious and loving and it’s such a wonderful feeling to...

And now, 21 years later, on Tuesday September 27, 2011, I was able to celebrate that precious baby girl who is now a beautiful young woman! The day started off amazing. I was up early enough to see God’s awesomeness in the sunrise. What better way to start off your day?? Then the day was filled with ministry and spending time with this fabulous girl! We had a dance party in our kumby and sang to our little...

 Yesterday we told the kumby driver to meet us at the hospital at 3óçlock’. Some of us were at a care point, some of us were at Hope House and just a few of us were at the hospital with our tanslaters, Nasepo and Nofondue.  When we were done at the hospital it was a little after 2 so a couple of us went down to the mall but some had to stay to meet the kumby, Nasepo, Nofondue, Natilie, Karli and me. It is very hot outside, Karli and I buy cokes, no kumby. 3oçlock passes, no kumby. We chit chat, come up with new subjects, ask Natilie for the tenth time what time it...
