Beaufort West so far

After just 3 days leave and getting comfortable, I got a phone call saying we had to get out of our storeroom in Beaufort West. Sharon and I raced to BW to find a new storage area and move 100's of boxes of shoes. We got there and started moving 1 truck load at a time at 113F. Jesus was good to us and He found new storage for us and it took all day but we got the shoes moved.



Then it was off to get the food for the children
After delivering the food I got to see a Murial that the kids painted thanking you guys for your awesome support.

Then it was off to deliver a bicycle to Rudy who helps us with the projects and he runs the sanitary towel ministry with his wife Sharlene. This was meant to help Rudi get around from project to project. Unfortunately last week I had to rush to BW because we discovered that he was manipulating the projects for his benefit and that the sanitary towel and a lot of the food was not going to where it is supposed to go. He was also causing the delay with the olive tree's because he was waiting for a bribe or something. I had to fire him and I am having him investigated. This means I have to go back to basics and go more often to BW to control and check up on whats happening.
We also had 2 teams doing VBS and maintenance, one from Atlanta and the other from Grand Rapids. It is always a joy to tell the children about Jesus and to just be with them and see them open up and beam when they are shown love.
