February brought lots of wonderful moments:
. Bringing my Pastor and his wife (from South Africa to the USA) to meet my friends, family and supporters
. Global Impact Celebration Conference at Shades Mountain Baptist Church
. Hanging out with the Shades Mountain Staff (where I interned/worked for 9 years)
. Meeting missionaries from around the world
. Being prayed for by multiple large and small groups - lifting up our field-burdens and concerns
. Sitting under deep, Biblical teaching and being spiritually filled and renewed by God's Word
. Raising funds for our church-plant to have a part-time paid staff member!
. Eating American foods!
. Chatting with old friends - as if I'd never left
. Crying daily as I was blessed with reminders of how much I love the people God's put in my spiritual family
. Opportunity to share what God's teaching me with multiple people and multiple age-groups!
. Being renewed in my call to South Africa : reminded by the lovely snow on 1 March 2013 - the same happened March 2009, the Sunday when I surrendered my life to the call to serve South Africa at Shades' GIC Sunday service.
... more thoughts about what God is teaching me through His people to come.
Just wanted to thank my supporters and prayer partners for lifting us up and joining what God is doing in South Africa.
I'll be in-touch!
