This past week my parents came to Swaziland to visit me. It was so good to have them here with me. I was able to show so much of what I have been telling them about. For so long they have heard about all of the sweet babies and they have seen pictures, but now they have actually seen them, held them, and fallen in love with them as much as I have.

On Tuesday the ladies that cook told us that they weren't going to come the rest of the week, because they would be attending workshops. So we finally got our chance to cook. They entrusted us with the keys to the container, and agreed to let us do everything without them there on Thursday and Friday. So everything went smoothly. On Friday we gave out clothes to the children. There was over eighty toothbrushes and toothpastes, and we didn't have enough… so over a hundred children came and received clothes. Praise God there was enough clothes!

Wednesday We visited the grandfather and his family at his homestead in Luve. It was so good. Ben and my mom gave testimonies of what the Lord has done in their lives. Ben talked about how the Lord healed him. And my mom talked about how she dedicated her children to the Lord, because when I was still in her womb the umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck. She talked about how Satan had plans to kill me, but the Lord had a plan for my life. We shared from the Word of God in 1Samuel, and how Hannah dedicated Samuel to the Lord. We prayed over everyone in the room. Kakotji told us that he understood the story of Samuel, but he also believes God because of the word of the testimonies given. He said that since the last time we prayed for him that he is able to walk around the homestead. Before, he was always in the bed or in the wheelchair. Glory to God! One of the mothers brought up her baby for prayer and told us she was dedicating him to the Lord. I am excited to go back and see what the Lord has done in answering the prayers.

My dad wasn't able to work on the new care point building project, but he was able to help Ben build a wheelchair ramp for Tando. Tando is ten years old and attending school for the first time this year. Because he is in a wheelchair schools would not accept him before this year. The school officials told his mom that the condition of Tando attending is only if she is there at all times. His mother has been coming to school everyday to help Tando to the bathroom, but now she is able to stay at home and work.

The week went by so fast. I wish they could have stayed longer, but I am so thankful for the time we had together. The Lord has answered so many prayers according to his will. He provided and brought my parents to me safely and safely home. Praise Him!!!

I am so glad they were able to spend a week in my life here and spend time in ministry with me.
