Say Kwamhlanga 5x Fast...GO!

So we found some internet this week.  Here are a few pictures of our last 48hrs in Kwamhlanga (Comm-shlonga) as well as a few from throughout the week.
Adriaan Adams (our host) giving us the orientation briefing and explaining our program.
Arriving at Charity Community Church and Community Care Center
Ok, cleaning this room is our first project in Kwamhlanga.  Simple project right? Just wait until we list just some of the things we found inside...


2 ping pong tables
4 Javelins
3 refrigerators
1 1960's washing machine w brand new drum
4 rats (3 dead)
3 wheelchairs
1 Microwave stuck inside a...
1 Termite mountain complete with angry termites
1 Mighty Thor Hammer
3 cannon balls
1 Welding mask
1 Kayak oar
1 3ft barbie without legs
and last but far from least...
1 coffin (luckily this was new)
Our other projects have been much less demanding as we have played with the children that attend the daycare in the community center where we are staying.








Please be praying for the team these next few days. We participated in house visits today. God blew us away with His presence and power. He showed up in such a powerful way that we are going back to visit homes again tomorrow.  We continue to attend evening prayer meetings and "share the word" with the South Africans.  The language barrier is intense as we strive to show God's love and we are heavily dependent on our translators.  Just in one day we come in contact with up to 5+ languages: English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Ndebele, Sepedi, Sotho and a few more we can't tell apart. 

God is good and we feel all of your prayers. Tonight Josh preached Romans 8:31-39.  Please pray that over us this week--that we can dream big and be more than conquerors in Christ.
