A New Blog Posting For You

Monkey eats off my hand! Shamo!

Cute kiddy types at Margate, one at the front tried to throttle me!


We are ringing places up getting freebies, We got 400 tires for a crecha playground, lots of shoe boxes and a box of good quality paper for crafts! What a cool blessing! (christie, simon {in a blur}, Julie, LauraG, LauraI














Hello Mes Amis,

We have been busy bunnies, we have had capers this week!

Simon peel, Laura Iredale, Jude Norcross, Laura Skinner, Julie Machachek, Christy Beyers, Richard Alleyne and myself, went to a place called Marget this weekend, it is quite a small dusty quiet town and the christadelphian meeting only has about 5 members! So we decided to do something about this, some of us advertised in the mall down the road, some of us went to a local township, and some knocked on doors near the meeting room.

The township is the poorest place that I have ever been to, pieces of cardboard are used as walls, buckets are used as toilets and there are people just hanging about because they have nothing to do, so it was ripe for getting people along to church! On the saturday about 45 people came along and on the sunday service about 60! So everyone was really pleased with what God allowed us to do!

There were also some wickedcool things we got up to, like the waffle house, the monkeys, the beach one evening, food handouts, getting to know each other a bit more and breaking the igniotion on the truck!

I don't think I've mentioned Cam Before, he is an American and a dood! He is also a fully fledged member of the gang! he does a lot of work in Durban centre which is where he lives with this family (Kim, Shiloh, Annalise and Wyatt) He also has a bald head and used to be in the Marines!

Other things that have happened, I gave 2 bible classes, Bunny Chow, Stung by a jellyfish, locked out of home jumped in window set alarm off armed guard came, climbed a tree, had roast chicken.... ooooooooooh, I have remebered something else that I have started, I am going to run the comrades marathon!! eek it is a double marathion in may, Christy Beyers was looking for a running buddy and I decided to venture forth and try it... I'm sure it will be a lot of pain but also a lot of pleasure!

I will attmept to put some pictures on, but the computer isn't liking it at the moment....


Kisses and hugsies to everyone, kisses for the masses

*edit* I Have the pictures! (they all seem to have come out a bit dark, it might be this computer because its fine on the laptops.)


Kids at Happy's disabled school being amused by us! It was too good an opportunity to miss (richard, simon, cam)

Durban Beach, it was a bit cloudy but hot, and good for swimming





Amazing mural that I saw and had to take a photo of!
