Hi Friends! Thank you for reading (and posting comments -- that is VERY encouraging)
Today was all about logistication, so no new pictures. We went over lots of logistics with the hotel staff, and the church staff that we are working with -- so not many cool pictures were taken.
We did go to South African Sam's club -- called Trade Centere to get the snacks for the kids program next week -- it was fun to see the cashier's face when we spent R4000 (that's 4000 Rand, or $500) on peanuts and raisins -- funny, because we can't give kids peanuts in America, they all suffer from major peanut allergies!
Lots of hanging out with Pator Titus today. He is so excited to have 250 of our closest friends coming in TOMORROW!!!!!
Please keep posting -- we'll have arrival pictures TOMORROW!

Whoa. You, me and Amo are on the computer at the same time. Fun. Hi Amo. You are a great logisticator, they're lucky to have you on the leadership team for this trip. By the way, glad AP found his wallet. scary!
Now the fun! Oh, the joy and wonder of those who are there for the first time. Looking forward to the soccer fest. Let the games begin!
The wallet experience for AP was God's way of saying you are watched over, I think.
Hey Rachel,
So glad you got to Africa safely and had a ton of fun in Dubai. That dune bashing looks sweeeeeet! Getting so excited for the day I leave to join you guys!
Love, Katie Landgrebe
Rachel - Welcome back to South Africa! Stay warm and be well. Oh, and if you see her, say hi to Kelsey's sister Kristina for me. She's awesome. All the best, Nancy
