November Thanks-happenings

God's will is becoming clearer for our family thismonth. Our roles as volunteer coordinators at

Ethembeni are becoming more clearly defined. We get

our first mission team this week from England. We

even got Ethembeni branded tee shirts so we are

official! The site for the church plant has been

narrowed. The classes we are teaching are growing.

House visits have been a blessing. Elizabeth and

Jacob continue to thrive. We are so thankful for all God

is doing in our lives and in those lives we come in

contact with daily.

Church Plant News

The team has narrowed thechurch plant site to two

neighboring Zulu

communities. This

abandoned community hall in

Sweetwaters may be available

to lease. It is a bit of a "fixer-

upper" but if it is God's will

then we know nothing is

impossible. Syvion (picturedspeaking beside Thomas) is a

church member who lives in

Sweetwaters. He found this

building near his home which

we are praying about now.

We also may have an

opportunity to start a church

near a neighboring school in

the community ofMagwababa.

SW Bible Study &

Chocolate Cake

We have been studying prayer

and the role of the Holy Spirit in

our lives. One day, it was raining

so hard on the tin roof of the

church that Thomas had to shout

for us to hear him even though we

were sitting beside him! We

celebrated Nomvano's birthday.

We enjoyed her cake as you cansee!

Welcome to

Shiyabazali

We have decided to concentrateour house visits in the

community of Shiyabazali

(means forsaken by parents).

Shiyas is a squatter camp of

Zulu and Lesotho people built

on an old dump. We each see 8

patients total but separately.

We share the gospel with 4

patients each week then see theother 4 the next week. This way

we do evangelism and

discipleship. We bring them

medicines, food, Bibles, and

help arrange transport to the

hospital if needed. It is such a

privilege bringing the Good

News.

Shoe boxes for

Shiyas

Our home group at Hilton

Baptist adopted 24 patients

that we see on house visits.

We packed 15 items intoeach shoe box and wrapped

them for Christmas. Each

patient will get a Christmas

gift of needed items to keep

them healthy this

December. It was a blast. It

really is better to give than

to receive.

5th Grade Sunday school

We had a blast in Sunday school

at Hilton Baptist this month. We

learned that names have

meanings in the Bible,

like Emmanuel means "God is

with us". The kids practiced

their Bible drills skills looking up

each name. Our favorite game

was racing to write from 0-100

for a candy bar. It got pretty

crazy about number 90!

The College Scene

Elizabeth almost has her

first semester of college

completed. She has made

so many new godly friends.

She enjoys leading her

dorm bible studies each

week. She declared her

major. She wants to teach

Math at the middle school

or high school level. She is

going to pursue a minor in

Biblical studies. Pray for

her as she will begin finals

in a few weeks.
