Rolling Up our Sleeves & working on the

things God LOVES!
February was a very productive month for our
family. We have gotten the reading groups up and
running thanks to the help of our interns. The
Grove Level team did a great job building soccer
goals, witnessing in Sweetwaters, and the Tabitha
kids grew spiritually during their VBS. Our
Sweetwaters young adult Bible study is steadily
meeting on Tuesdays. Elizabeth and Jacob are
thriving at school and helping pitch in when they
have off days around the ministry. We all agree
that spreading God's love is the best job of ALL!

Teaching & Mentoring

Thomas leads our young adult Bible
study in Sweetwaters. We have 4-5
guys & girls attending. We
are studying the Trinity. Our interns
attend with us so it is quite the crowd.
He also enjoys teaching the Bible
study at the Indian church in
Northdale weekly. The school is
improving steadily with the addition of
the Australian teacher this month.
Kids even have homework daily
supervised by a retired local teacher.
As you can see, he has his hands full!

Sweetwaters House Visits

We were able to go on house visits Feb 18th. We went out in two teams to see
patients. Ginger Talley, on my team had the privilege of leading Dumsani to the
Lord. Other patients were very encouraged. Continue to pray for house visits to
start back in a consistent and intentional manner to spread the Word of God
throughout Sweetwaters.

Grove Level Mission Team

God used the Grove Level mission team in many ways. They did a great job of
presenting the gospel to the Tabitha kids during their VBS. They helped train our
grade 2&3 Zulu teachers to be more effective teachers. They ran reading groups.
The men repaired the Hope Center bathroom&fences, and erected 2 soccer goals
so recess is a little World Cup South Africa now! Thanks for all you did and for
the encouragement you gave our family!

Intern update
God had blessed us again with
incredible interns. These 6 girls
love the Lord and our Tabitha kids.
They never complain and are a joy
to Thomas and I. They teach
preschool, assist in the school, run
our reading groups, monitor
homework time, lead a devotional
group, and take evening call. They
always do it with a smile on their
face. We love you all!

The Durban Beach is

splash-tastic!
We want to thank the Grove
Level team for taking us to the
Durban beach. Our kids had
never ridden on a chartered
bus so they jumped up & down
in the parking lot when the bus
arrived. As you can see, they
had a ball!

Elizabeth Update
Elizabeth is doing well. She balances school and fun better than anyone.
She went with us to the beach and watched our belongings while the rest
of us played in the water. She is loving on her favorite set of twins,
Nokwanda and Luyanda here. They make quite a trio!

The Jacob Scoop

Jacob helped dismantle
the old soccer goals at
Tabitha. He is as strong
as an ox so it is good to
have a strong back
around to do the heavy
lifting at times. He still
loves his new school, St
Charles. He won all but
one of his inter-house
swim meet events this
month too. We sure do
love our boy!
