Prayer Update

We have had a great week! There has been a group of 5 people with us from Word of Life Argentina and Brazil. They were visiting several different countries, training staff for Born Again to a Living Hope. They also trained some of our staff in hopes of performing this drama here in South Africa starting in December. At that time we will need to be able to train others to join with our staff in order to perform at schools, prisons, churches, etc.

Easter was a day of fun, relaxation and fellowship. We spent lunch with some missionary friends that are in Joburg with TEAM Mission. We just met in December and have really enjoyed getting to know each other. They are from Alaska and their names are James, Ella, Hannah, Max & Bronwyn Embree. Here are some pictures from the afternoon.

For dinner we all packed up and headed to WOL for a big traditional Easter dinner. There were 24 adults and 9 children. It was delicious, but more important was the time spent together as one big family in Christ.

On Friday, April 13, Brandon will be celebrating his 8th birthday! It's amazing how time flies. His birthday happens to fall on the Homeschool Ice Skating day, so we will be spending the morning ice skating.

Saturday, April 14, is a Soccer Marathon. Please keep this event in your prayers! Please pray that many unsaved youth attend and make a decision for Christ. Please pray also that things run smoothly and that there are no major injuries.

Thanks, again, for your prayers! We appreciate your part in our ministry!

Mary, for the fam
