My favorite memory is still the smiles and hugs I received from so many children! That is what I will keep in my heart forever. Some other fun memories include the "boys" who followed the guitar player at Moyo singing Wimawei (sp). I laugh every time I think of it...and when the cape buffalo started coming after us due to the mating call, which we cannot mention! I look forward to finding out what other memories you cherish. Love and Blessings, Karen
There were so many. I loved my traveling companions...they were the best! It was great getting to know Blommie, a woman of great faith and love for the Lord, her servant heart and great laugh! I also really enjoyed meeting the rest of the MCM staff and all the interns.
My heart was really moved by the little time I was able to spend in the HIV/TB hospital with the women and children. I would love to spend more time there. The children from the holiday clubs were so loving, joyful and thankful for our little gestures of kindness.
I could pretty much just go on and share every single experience in South Africa as my "highlight". But my absolute favorite was spending time with Laura. She is such a great friend, a woman who lives with a rock solid faith in the Lord and passion for life.
My favorite time was all the laughter! I know I've said it before, but you guys filled my cup to over flowing! I think I'll definitely be in need of a reunion when I get home in November! Just watching you all (secretly spying) blessed me to see you all interact and support one another. You all were made for the mission field. I think praying on top of Paarl rock was also a high light for me. So free, so big, so right.
I loved being with the MCM team, especially the ones I've met before! I loved seeing how far God has brought MCM-the discipleship groups, the foodcenter, the intern program, the grapes, the water...I loved our team who had such a heart to serve! You all blessed me! But my biggest joy came with seeing Laura. I could have stayed longer just to be with her! I think Laura is in her natural habitat! God is blessing, growing and making her glow!
