BUSY Tuesday...

BADISA Caring Services Workshop


Requested to facilitate sessions for foster parents and children.  Reggie and I met with 48 children and their parents separately.

Topic for children... Self Image and Puberty &Hygiene.  Expecting and prepared for 20 kids our facilitation skills were stretched when 48 showed up (school's out... nothing better to do)!


Using the story of David & Goliath, Reggie taught the truth that we are all special in God's sight and can do anything with Him on our side.

Dividing the boys from the girls we then talked about puberty and how to take care of our bodies.


After lunch the parents were very appreciative of time spent teaching them how to build their foster children's self image.  


Training/facilitation is my passion... Thank you Lord for opportunities to teach your truth!!


Hlalane Christmas Party

While I was busy with facilitation... Nathan & the Int'l volunteers helped the Island Church with the annual Hlalane Christmas Party.








































































































Girls Pampering Party...

To end the day, a pampering party for the girls from the St. Andrews soup kitchen.  Expecting 13 girls, Julie and I picked up 28 from the church and brought them to the YFC hall where Viola and Carolin had prepared for an evening of pampering.

While I was helping prepare burgers and extra hot dogs, Julie led a beautiful devotion telling the girls of how special they are in the Father's eyes.


He loves them unconditionally!










Each girl was given a yogurt facial








and fingernails painted!












Feeling very special, they left knowing they are loved by their heavenly Father and the International Volunteers.

By 10pm all girls were safely back and home... the Int'l Volunteers cleaned up, came home washed laundry and at 2am they were safely on a bus for a holiday in Durban!

Whew... what a Tuesday!! (Nathan and I have 5 days alone... Yippee!!)
