UK Rambles

Hello Friends!
After a wonderful two weeks with our South African family, we have come to the UK to complete our final work with MAF, and say goodbye to many who have supported and prayed for us these past years. Our first few days were in Folkestone, Kent at our MAF UK offices. The team at MAF UK have been incredible to us in their support and help over the year - we will miss them all. Now we are in Saffrom Walden, just outside of Cambridge with family and supporters. This sunday we are at Seven Oaks at a church meeting, then off towards the West of the country to visit with more family and supporters.

Recharging the Batteries

Greetings from South Africa!

We have been here in Johannesburg a week already, and have another to go before we head north to the UK.

It has been fantastic to be with our SA family again and especially fun to meet our beautiful new little niece, Caroline, daughter of Allan and Trish.

Allan and Trish have graciously opened their home to us, and let us rest and relax…just what we have needed after weeks of packing and planning for the future. It has been good to be still for a few days and re-charge our emotional and physical batteries before heading into all the new things before us.

Sandy’s father Neil turned 70 this year, and for a special birthday present, we got him a ride in a hot air balloon. Sandy and Allan accompanied their Dad for his special day. They got out there early, and the balloon took off as the African sun rose in the sky. It was awesome. Afterwards, we all went out for a family birthday brunch.
