Coming back to SA and jumping back in has been busy busy! And we were so ready for Christmas break.
Staff Celebration
But before we took some much deserved holidays, we had wonderful times of get together and celebration with out staff.
We drove to a little strawberry farm, played some games, and ate a LOT of meat. Africans love their meat, so they loved this celebration. It was so nice to be all together celebrating Jesus coming to earth. We have grown to love our staff so much, and I'm always amazed of how easy it was for us to become part of this big Hope Africa Collective family. These people are just incredible.
Christmas holidays means a lot of people go away. Including our co-workers and staff.
So Mike and I looked after our friends and co-worker's 2 boys while they packed and got ready to fly to Australia.

Church Mobilization Update
While back in Canada, Mike made this connection with a great organization and has been looking into using their material for Church Mobilization. So we were so blessed when Pastor Amos, the local representative here, said he would like to come meet us in South Africa! He traveled all the way from Zambia and was with us for 3 days.
If he was expecting a South African experience, he got a Canadian experience! We fed him French toasts, burgers and pizza. I don't think he minded though.
The kids really liked him too. He has 7 children back in Zambia, so he is used to it.

We look forward to seeing what God will do with this new relationship, and continue to look for pastors to partner with us in Church mobilization.
