Building Bridges...
...through a Spring Braai (aka barbecue/grill)
Activities
for all ages with a family picnic atmosphere, it was an enjoyable day filled
with relationship building. Over 200 people from various churches came through
the Word of Life South Africa property during the course of the day last Saturday. They
participated in sports, board games, minute-to-win games, swimming, face-painting,
crafts, and more. After lunch was served everyone sat together to listen
to the gospel message given by Uncle Dwight.
My primary roles were to oversee
the pool area and help facilitate the crafts but my secondary purpose was to
build into Palesa’s and Mpho’s lives. These girls do not understand who God is or that He is able to save them from their sins through the payment made by
Jesus death on the cross. I wanted to take advantage of the day by building
another bridge into their lives that they might glimpse the love of Christ and
the hope and joy found in Him. They are still closed off to the gospel but pray
that little by little, step by step, bridge by bridge God might draw them to
Himself.
