A few weeks ago, the girls in my form went to Shewula, a small community near the Mozambique border. We spent Friday night there and did community service at 3 of the schools in that area. It was sooo cool! We got to split into groups and play with the kids. My group had the 8 year olds. There were about 40 of them. They were adorable!! The place we stayed at had 4 cabin things, and the rest of us put up tents. Talk about interesting!! It was so much fun to hang out with all of the girls though. We talked most of the night....GIRL TALK!! It is so cool to be able to go to places like that and help out and play with the kids, we at Waterford, are so privileged. I hope to go back sometime. I'll post some pictures soon.
There was a youth night last Friday night. It went really well. Please pray that God opens doors for us to be able to have them more regularly. Also...at my school, some,e teachers and students have started a G.A.P. (gender awareness project) to encourage homosexuals to come out and not be scared to be who they are. They want our school to be more tolerant to other lifestyles etc. There is even a whole week coming up dedicated to GAP and we all have to participate. I don't know what that will be like. I wish we could have a Christian week, that would be awesome. Anyways..please pray for my school and I don't even know really....it seems satan is having his way in a lot of things , maybe for strength for the Christians. I think during this time, Christians are going to be attacked because they assume that we are not going to agree with what they are bringing into the school. We don't agree, we are intolerant of the sin, but we still love the people. After all, God still loves us when we sin. I don't see why they can bring GAP into the school because they are being intolerant of people's religious beliefs, but do they care?? no, not really. Oh well....God is in control and hopefully He will work through us during this time. There are sooo many hurting people at my school. Please pray for two girls in my class...Anna and Nadja.
Oh yea...I'm playing basketball now and i LOVE IT!! I still love soccer the most but I really like basketball. It all started at a Concrete Hoops camp here in Swaziland, put on by a group of Canadian coaches. It was awesome and now I can't stop playing. Weird i know.
That is all I can think of at the moment. School is keeping me extremely busy and stressed. I miss everyone! God bless!!!
The group pic is our Concrete hoops group with our coach, Rachel, at my school (waterford hosted the camp) And the other picture is Tyrone (canadian coach), me, and Rachel. I got the most improved player award! lol.
