“I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course. So correct me, Lord, but please be gentle. Do not correct me in anger, for I would die.”

Jeremiah 10:23-24


But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves are green, and they never stop producing fruit.”

Jeremiah 17:7-8

Goodbye Nathan!!


Nathan also left on Sept 5th. He was our first "local" international volunteer as he is from the Johannesburg area. His family is friends with our Centre Director, Rolf, and he was looking for a volunteer opportunity for a couple months before going to college. He was quite the character! Here's a pic of him that we call "surfer dude" since he tried his hand at surfing while he was here. It was nice getting to know about another area of South Africa. Jo'burg is pretty different from Cape Town, so it was cool hearing his stories and how his life is different there. We'll miss his humor and openness to anything! He'll be going to school for graphic design and from what I've seen I think he will be very succesful! Here's another pic of him with two of our other vols when they climbed Table Mountain.....
