Sunday

Hey Everyone!!!!!

Its almost 3:00 pm here in East London and we finally got a chance to catch you all up on what we have done so far! Yesterday we hit the ground running the moment we arrived. Straight from the airport we headed to First City Baptist church and began working with the staff on renovations for Hope Preparatory School. We also got the chance to meet many of the staff we'll be working with this week. It was great to get a glimpse of how we will be ministering to the city for the next week.

Our team is currently preparing crafts and stories for the start of Holiday Club tomorrow. We spent the morning worshiping with our church family at First City Baptist and then had the opportunity to travel to Duncan Village to go to a to a township church led and run by the people that live in the village of East London. Both services were awesome and it was such a blessing to get to fellowship with so many amazing people on a Sunday morning.

It has already been such a great experience and it is only our second day! Our team is already being so used by God in ways we couldn't have imagined. Thank you for all of your prayers and support back home! Tonight we will be sharing with our FBC family in a more intimate setting where members of the church can ask us questions and members of our team will be able to share our testimonies with the church body.

Check back soon for another update!!! And please continue to pray for God to use us to touch the lives of the South Africans!

Love,
Ashley and Katie
