Hello again everyone! Sorry for being late on the blog post, I was not able to get good enough wifi this Monday!  You will just be blessed with another blog post in a couple days (hopefully). But alas, it was another good week this past week! On Monday we went into town to walk around and spread the word of Christ as well as going grocery shopping for the squad. We got to tell a lot of people about the Gospel and pray for a lot of people as well. On Tuesday we had to leave Eswatini in order to renew our visas, as we would have been in the country for longer than our original visas allowed. So we left to go to South Africa on Tuesday. We had to stay out of Eswatini for at least 24 hours, so we used Tuesday as a day for adventure and we decided to go to Krüger national park! We were really excited to go and see some awesome animals! We got to see all of the big 5 (Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Rhino, Lion, and Leopard) which was really beautiful and amazing. Seeing these animals and the beautiful landscape reminds me of how much of an artist God really is and how much he has blessed us with in this lifetime here on Earth. We stayed the night in South Africa and went back to Eswatini on Wednesday. Thursday and Friday were spent at the care point with the kids again! We were all so excited to see them and they were excited to see us. We got to tell all of them the story of the Good Samaritan, and they were intrigued and asking questions which was awesome. One of the questions was “why didn’t the priest or Levite stop to help the man that was hurt?” So it was really cool to be able to interact with the kids in that way and for them to be interested in the Bible stories. One of the younger boys held my hand while we were praying one morning too. I have gotten closer to the cooks and our Shepards/translators and gotten to hear more of their stories throughout the days too. We try to make sure to remember that we are there for them too and pour out our love from God on them as well. So far this has been incredibly fruitful and I love being able to talk to so many people about the Gospel and why Jesus did what he did for us. Stay tuned for another great week!
