South City Christian College School Musical
Sarah Beth and Brad had lead roles in the School Musical “The Boyfriend” they did a wonderful job. We were so very proud of them and all the teenagers involved. Cala was the assistant to the director and God gave so much opportunity to “speak Christ” into the lives of these young leaders- it was a major blessing for her.
Seaslopes Community Church
We started one of our first youth groups here. The pastor’s son Timmy is leading the group with a leadership team. They are having about 30 teens on Friday nights. PTL

“Finish Strong” & Prayer Requests This has been our prayer request for our family and the time is upon us. We have one more church to say our goodbye’s to. 4+ years ago we never dreamed the day would come and we would not want to go to USA but… Yes we are excited to see family and friends and to share with others what God is doing but it is also hard to leave new family and friends. However we are claiming Jeremiah 29:11 that God does have a plan for us at this time and look forward to see His work and impact as we share in the US.
We will fly from Joberg, SA on Saturday June 21 to NY SA flight 207. From there to Washington and on to Huntsville, AL. We should arrive there Sunday at 1:15 PM
Please especially pray for Sarah Beth. She is taking exams this week. That is a lot of stress with all that is going on. Also she really is VERY Upset that we are going to US for so long. This is her home and she wants to stay. (Also Brad lives here)
We need a miracle from the LORD of peace for her and for HIM to prepare friends in US for her, a youth group she will like and joy. Also pray for Brad to grow spiritually while we are away and for them to be able to communicate and stay friends.
Sarah Beth’s birthday is June 23. Would you drop her email or mail a card. This show of love would be such an encouragement for her.
