Away from home...

Currently, we are in the Free State Province of South Africa, on the farm owned by Amrie's parents.  Our vehicle - a Mitsubishi Pajero - has been at a mechanic's, having the clutch and pressure plate replaced, oil leaks fixed, etc.  While waiting for the vehicle to be worked on, we have been visiting family and friends, Phil has preached a couple of times at our old church here in Ladybrand, and we have been able to meet up with some of our former students of Hope Christian Academy.  Lord willing, we will be headed back to Mangusi on Thursday (23rd).

Here are a few pictures from the last few weeks..

Phil has enjoyed helping with the soya bean harvest.  Driving this old Mercedes was delightful!
He also enjoyed discing a few fields with this Landini and offset.
Amrie's parents live in a beautiful part of South Africa!  This is looking from their front porch.

Snapshots of the Children

You know the saying, "Out of sight, out of mind."  Well, here are a few snapshots of the children to help you keep us in your thoughts and prayers! :)


Priya enjoys picking flowers for Mommy! This is beside Lake Shengeza, close to where we live.


Adin was helping Daddy trim the grass with his own edge trimmer!

They are not always this loving to one another, but they are growing!

On January 24th, Antonie celebrated his 8th birthday.  How time flies!

Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers!  Your prayers are invaluable!
