Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
I'm so blessed to have such a good friend! Lori has come to visit for two weeks to see what ministry is like and spend time with each other. I can't wait for her to meet all my South African friends.
As soon as I picked Lori up from the airport we headed to Soccer City to watch the South African football team, Bafana Bafana play Colombia. I'm glad she got to experience this cultural event especially with the World Cup being in 11 days.
We went to a Bible Study located in another part of Soweto called Tshepisong. We studied the story of David, Bathsheba and the prophet Nathan which led to great discussion about God's forgiveness. We celebrated Brenda's (beside me) 28th birthday afterwards with a cake that Lori and I baked.
And of course the children loved Lori and were quick to become friends!
The Botanical Gardens is a nice escape from the chaos of the city of Joburg and is only ten minutes from our flat. We had a picnic and enjoyed the African landscape.
On Sunday we worshipped at Faith Baptist Church in Snake Park. This is Lori with the Sunday School class.
Lori teaches Sunday School at the Summit Church. She has taught them about missions and the importance of praying for children in other countries who may not know the Lord. We are going to give this picture to the children at Faith Baptist Church so they know that they are being prayed for by children in America.
