A summer Thanksgiving!

Nov 25, 2010

Thanksgiving with all our American and Life Skills Educator Friends!
With some of the female volunteers!
Together with other U.S. Volunteers, we joined with the Life Skills Educator team to celebrate Thanksgiving. Everyone contributed to the spread – what a feast! – and some took time to present the history of Thankgiving by telling the facts and conducting an interactive skit with pilgrims, Native Americans and all! The LSEs really took a great interest, and of course the food was delicious and made us all stuffed, as a proper Thanksgiving should be, no matter where you celebrate it! 

Tim's application submitted!

We went for it and decided to apply for my South African residency through an immigration firm. We got the confirmation by realizing that this endeavor could be a long and continuing distraction from our work here if we took it on ourselves. It was an expensive decision; we paid for it with money we don’t have. But we are confident that this was the right decision, and that the expense will be covered in time. Today I have felt a peace, knowing that it’s all taken care of in advance and in God’s hands.
