Blessings to You!




Hello everyone!
Thankyou for your patience with this blog.  We have had sporadic internet connection
 this last week.  The trip is going great!  There are some exciting things happening in this country among these people.  They are so gracious and they love to Worship and Serve the LORD!  The children at church yesterday were so much fun...  Yesterday, we worshiped at a church that meets under a tree in Zikhoteni.  The children told the story of the Prodigal Son.  It was so humbling to watch the children act out this amazing story of God's grace.  The child playing the part of the Father ran to the son who was lost and kissed him on both cheeks!  The whole congregation erupted in praise and clapping!  It was awesome!  
I have been using the limited time for internet connection to reach my family with updates.  Thankyou for checking this blog.  I will continue to send you information and pictures.  I am so very thankful to have been given this opportunity.  I look forward to telling you all about this trip next week.  
Today, we went shopping in Manzini and Mabane.  The people are very good in sales.  They would try to talk you into buying everything in their shops.  We tried!  We got to spend the whole day with Wayne and Barbara.  Their picture is in the blog below.  They are extremely gifted and their ministry is amazing.  Wayne is doing better.  He has been suffering this week with bad back pain.  We took him to the hospital today for a follow-up visit.  The doctor was not able to see him.  He is making good progress. So, he will try to see the Dr. in Jo-berg on Saturday when we go to the airport to TRAVEL HOME!!! :)
Please continue to pray for the Myers.  God is doing great things through their lives!
I will look forward to sending more information soon.  
Love to you all!
Pastor Mark
