The 4 days we have spent in South Africa are overwhelming. It is a beautiful place. The Christians we have met have been wonderful. Nancy and I worshiped with our partner church at Mowbray and had powerful, very Presbyterian worship.
We have also seen Townships with poverty that is indescribable. We have seen families living in tin-roofed boxes. We have seen great hope in the eyes of school-aged children in the program at J.L. Zwane Presbyterian church.
Nancy and I went to the end of the world Monday when we visited the Cape of Good Hope, the southeast tip of the African continent. It was incredibly beautiful. We walked among penguins near Simonstown! We visited a Presbyterian daycare near Fishhoek that prepares very poor children for elementary school -- giving them a chance in life.
I am very excited about our partner churches at Mowbray and Guguletho. It is a three-way partnership, but there is more activity between the MP Dube church and Mowbray church. Praise God.
