Lisa's visit

My cousin Lisa came and visited me for a week! How exciting and wonderful to have her here with me and show her a little of what I do. She arrived on a Tuesday and stayed until the following Wednesday. The night she arrived I was in charge of making cookies for a Pastor's Luncheon the following day. She joined right in and made some delicious cookies that all the pastors and their wives enjoyed that Wednesday. Several other times throughout the week she helped with the baking and cooking and enjoyed it. 

We went to the children's ministry in Zandspruit together on Thursday afternoon. The kids loved her. Friday evening we went to Sandton youth. Sunday morning we took taxis into Johannesburg with Connie, Grace, DK, and Paulo and visited Hillbrow Church. This month is youth month and the youth of that church led the entire service. After church two of the ladies prepared a traditional African meal for us (phuti, stew, and amasi) which tasted really good. We were very thankful for their hospitality. 

In the afternoon we visited the Rosebank market. It was filled with so many different made goods, jewelry, fabric, and especially food. We bought several treats to share amongst the six of us. Finally we were given a lift to a taxi and took the taxi close to home and a lift back to the Word of Life property. It was a good day.

It was a blessing to have my cousin come visit and thank the Lord for the opportunity to share my life here with her.
