There is a new phrase we have learned in our three weeks in Africa... "we were delayed." Many things have caused us to be delayed in writing our first blog; from having no time, not being at our home and having poor connection. We are grateful to have stumbled upon an internet cafe!
It is hard to believe that we left three weeks ago today. The second we landed in Swaziland we dropped our bags off at our new flat and headed south to start painting a church. From that moment we have been working with three different teams. A team from Southern Nazarene University, Eastern Nazarene University, and team from Lenexa Kansas. We have visited ten schools, painted a church and college, spent days at clinics, helped build a nurses home, dug trenches for water wells, and started numerous new friendships...needless to say we have been busy! We are loving it! We head back to Manzini tomorrow (our new home). There we will plan to write more and post pictures!
