9 days later....

This is kyle here, going to give you a quick update of the things that have happened in our life. 


So since the wonderful experience at the Church, we were blessed to go back to the wonderful city of Waboomskrall twice. This time we went to two different schools deeper into the mountains but still where surrounded by a wonderful and loving group of kids.  For the group of older kids we made bracelet's but put the colored beads on the yarn and told the story of jesus' love and faith fullness. That seemed to go over really well and they all seemed to love it. With the younger kids we got foam crosses and had them write Jesus loves me on it and draw there favorite thing. Lets just say some of the kids went really crazy with the glitter. We then taught them the game "heads up 7up", we all had a blast reliving our middle school days.  After lunch both days we went back to the Waboomskral center and brought out some rugby balls and soccer balls and just had a good time loving and playing with the kids.  It was really tough saying goodbye to them on Tuesday and telling them that it was our last day.

On Wednesday we got to stay around the home base Makani and help out around here and get this place looking sharp.  We helped with the keeping up of the gardens and the trimming of the grass. Dan was given the task of taking out 3 large palm tree looking stumps.  About 45 minutes into it Dan removes the first stump and BAM! busted pipe and water spraying everywhere.  Needless to say the pipe took about all day to fix and it didn't seem like they were very happy with us.


Today, Thursday , for me was a very interesting and very God moving day. We went to a hospital for the first half, to just see if anyone needs prayer and to just see how God wanted us to move there.  A group of us went to the children's wing and got to go and color and talk to kids with broken legs and knees.  I think that just having us there showing them love and attention lifted there spirits.  Some of these kids have been in the hospital for like a month and no one has come to see them.  Another group got to go to the cancer ward and pray with people who are fighting cancer and going through chemo.  That group there said that they had some pretty powerful stuff happen and could feel God moving. The last of our group went to the out patient area and talked to people that were just sitting there and waiting. Some people have been waiting for hours in there and you could just see the pain on there faces. That group prayed long and hard with people and did Gods will and even when people didn't want personal prayer, our team stepped away and prayed for them on there own. After that we went and met up with a surfing ministry called Alephi.  There we met a group of kids that were amazing, they have such a joy for life and a want to fix there community and tell everyone about God and his way. It was very heart warming to see a group of kids that are willing to fight to help there community and at such a young age.

Well that is all for now, we will keep you posted as much as we can and as fast as we can. We just have a lot of opportunities going on right now. If you are reading this and you are taking prayer request please pray for a boy named Darryn, he is fighting meningitis and is having a hard time. His family hasn't come to see him once and every time he gets a headache he goes blind. The Dr. thinks that it has spread to his spinal chord but they don't know. Please pray from healing and if its God's will then just comfort as he is in pain.

We love and miss you all.
