Day Four- June 20, 2007







Today I drove the kombi all over Hiedelberg. We put in an ecogarden and had Bible school. We ate bunny chow for lunch. Bunny chow is a sub sandwich that has french fries, bologna, and hotdogs, and shredded cheese on it. It was pretty good but too much to eat.

I had the opportunity to witness to two young men after Bible school who had a lot of questions about God, Jesus, and the Bible. I was able to give one young man a Bible because Jo Carol had bought a new one and was willing to give it away. Marty and I prayed with the young men and Thabso will follow up on them. They said they would return tomorrow.

All the children are blessing us more that we are blessing them. They are all so precious. Some come with no shoes and there is glass everywhere. The field that we play on has no grass, just red dirt. The kids love the soccer balls that we brought. We have taught them American football and dodgeball. We have also played a form of baseball with a flat bat. Marty says that it resembles cricket. We found a jump rope in the kombi and the girls taught us a few things. They jump three times and then hold the rope up and then start again.

When we left the field Makgale (Mac Daddy) gave out some of our left over sandwiches to the children. There was almost a mob. These children are hungry for physical and spiritual food.

No evening service tonight. We came back to the farm and on the way Edward and I had a race on the farm road. We won. Move over, Dale Jr.

For supper, we had Malaysian chicken and rice. The dessert we had tasted like an Andes Mint. It was so rich.

After supper, we emailed home and played Family Feud.

God has provided another wonderful day for us and one I will treasure forever.
