A Message from Grandma Annie

Today was a great day to connect with the people of South Africa.  Our driver, Sully was sharing about his family and how he loves working with the visitors.  He said there are times when he gets home late but he loves to tell his family about the great people he drives.  I told him how his driving us meant to us.  He said hearing that meant so much to him.
We had lunch with the Ma’s  a great  group of local ladies making a difference in Wellington.  They all said they felt called by God to serve the children of the area. They sang for us and welcomed us so warmly.

 We had another productive workday today at the houses. We managed to complete a fairly decent amount of the outside walls. We had the opportunity to work alongside some of the locals and do hours worth of brick laying with them. All of the men were so welcoming and so willing to teach us how to do a better job or how to be more efficient.

We had another delicious meal tonight and had the chance to sit down as a group to do a devotional before everyone headed off to bed.
