20 May 2022 Acornhoek and Cottondale COTN

God continues to do amazing work. The services have been great with groups singing each night. At Acornhoek Zodwa and I sang #81 in the Ina, swinene ndza mu tiva out of the Shanghan Hymnal (Blessed Assurance). They also sang 2 others I know in their language. They sang 2 songs tonight I knew also at Cottondale.

Several churches had groups each night that "brought a number" (sang). The people have shown me their love. God has been giving me a different message each night so far. It has been amazing. Many people have found help at the altar for various things from salvation, forgiveness of others, and many other things. 

Again I will try and post pictures if the wifi will let me.

Sunday 8 January

Had an incredible service Sunday at Cottondale. The Lord has blessed them since we were here in 1998. They have a new building and a good crowd even though many of their people had gone back to Johannesburg, etc. for work and university.

First week of January 2017

This has been a rough but good week. Mikki has been struggling with back pain and we've been to the doctor. However the services have been good. Here are some more pictures. I even managed to get a picture of the altar at invitation time which is usually impossible. Some videos also of course.

December 31 with Ndlovus' and Gomis' at Kruger

We got to meet a beautiful missionary couple, Danny and Elizabeth Gomis, and their girls. They are stationed in Senagal. It was a treat to get to go to Kruger a second day. We had a surprise braai at lunch brought in by a pastor, a friend and another lady.
Danny taught us a song from Nigeria, Oshe Babalua Oshe (sp?). It was great to hear of the work going on in the Nazarene west Africa Field.

More pictures and videos.

December 29 - Mikki's birthday

Mikki and Khomotso shared a birthday. Big braai or as you would say in the USA, a big cook out.
And even better it was in Kruger Park.
Here are some pictures from that day.
