Prayers Answered

Because of your prayers and God's awesome compassion, several prayers were answered in powerful ways this week. For one; Erik, our colleague, was served with deportation documents when his application for temporary resident's permit was denied (not the answer, but the problem). After much prayer and a God-send contact, the decision was overturned just this morning! He has been granted permission to resume the application process from South Africa (as opposed to the US). Also, regarding Nono; we were able to see Nono this Friday at the orphan support group that meets each week. She was healthy and safe. She was able to process through her trauma with some of our staff and get lots of hugs and wise counsel. She has a couple different options that she can choose from re: where to live. Thank you for praying! And praise God that He hears and acts on behalf of His children.
And finally, we now have over 100% of our support in!! We are so humbled by the reality that so many folks are willing to make personal sacrifices to make God's work in South Africa possible. Please continue to pray that God would keep us humble and that we would be faithful to carry out those works that he planned in advance for us!
