Anything but normal.

It has been a great few days. Mark Stermer, Lee Domingue and Joe Martin have been in town. We have had a great time with them. We went on a photo safari at a game park, very cool and they went up to Mozambique, to have hands on help with the church plant there. They left yesterdy, with Charles, to go on a hunt in South Africa. We heard this morning that it was snowing there so I'm not sure what will happen when they get there. Anyways, we had another medical clinic Wednesday. It was at Makholweni, another site where we are in the process of building a carepoint, but don't have one yet. There were probably about 100 kids at clinic and maybe 150 that came for the meal. I really enjoy doing the medical clinics, it really feels like you are helping. The first pictures are from dinner Wednesday night. The next few are at the government hospital, Charles and Patrick went there to hang curtains that Patrick's mom had made. The last ones are at the medical clinic. God is using us and we are happy to be in His will. Keep us in your prayers. We love and miss everyone. PS- I am not very good at placing the pics where i want them yet :) So if they don't follow what the text says, I am sure you will figure it out.

odd to think about getting snowed out of a safari hunt.

thanks for the pics of my folks - they're incredible people. i'm biased, i know.

and it looks like charles is affecting patrick.... now if you get my dad or or daran (or maybe even ben) to do the "fig newton" on a ladder, that'd be a picture for the ages.

Isn't it sweet of Stermer and crew to go visit ya'll in Africa =) If I stay in Iraq long enough (might be here until next summer), maybe I'll look into taking a trip down there.

Hi Kristen and Charles,
I'm so glad that you also are blogging because now I get even more info on what all of you Cup-ers are doing. I love you all, love your hearts, and love to know what's going on in Swaziland. Plus I get the extra bonus of seeing Patrick in some of your pics. Thanks so much.
