School, Hospital Visit & Safari!

What an amazing, unbelievable day! Marrawakanaka! (God is good!)

Here is our day in pictures:

We visited another town today where Sherrie ministers to the school and hospital. The school takes all children despite whether they can pay or not. Many are the poorest of the poor, orphans and the terminally ill. They serve over 600 children! Today we presented the keyboard you all prayed for to get through traveling. This was the keyboard Lucy bought Glen for his therapy. Words cannot describe the reaction of the children and how it affected Lucy to see it being utilized in this manner.... having no idea where it would eventually end up when she first got it. Marrawakanaka!

Then onto the hospital. There are a few hospitals in the area we are staying, and the one we visited today was considered the best and services about 300 patients a day. Sherrie has such a heart for it. This is where we were able to hand out diapers ("napies") and blankets to the new mothers. There were 2 new sets of twins born today!
Marrawakanaka!

And lastly our treat... a real African safari!! It was such a blessing especially since it was Pastor Steve's birthday! How many people can say they went on a safari on their birthday?!!
Marrawakanaka!
