Hello again just picking up from yesterday.
Last night we were given the opportunity to watch a documentary entitled “Ubuntu” which featured two of the children from Eagles Wings. This documentary aims to raise awareness of the social issues facing South Africa including the plight of street children. It aims to promote action towards solving these problems from within. A team from Eagles Wings produced this enlightening documentary which we found both confronting yet exciting because it strives to help bring solutions to these serious issues.
We started our morning in prayer. We were able to come together as a team and raise our concerns and praises to our Father. This time draws us closer together as we share our thoughts and feelings with one another.
We walked to MMM (Mobile Missionary Maintenance) to look at the work that is being done there. At MMM they offer a variety of training courses including: brick laying, tailoring, carpentry and computer skills. It is inspiring to see the range of training that is being offered to the Zambian people to empower them to be self supporting.
School finished today and we were able to observe and take part in their final assembly. The singing is astounding and is something that is hard to explain with words. The children sing with such light in their eyes and rhythm in their bodies that you can’t help but smile!
This afternoon we will be meeting the children that will be traveling with us to Livingstone for camp. This will be exciting to know who we will be responsible for since we each will be looking after two children during the camp.
Thank you for your continued prayers, please keep praying for the return of our luggage! This is an experience we will remember forever!
