on friday afternoon we took our 9 year old girl into khayelitsha to spend a weekend with her new foster mom, she had amazing time and the photo shows her with maz and her new mom, nicky.
things however weren't all that rosy as we entered and exited khayelithsa, as we came off the N2 into 'mew way' we were greeted by a police road block and we diverted around it, as we had only one set of instructions to the home we spent around 1 hour trying to find the place...as we arrived we found some of the other children who live in this home were waiting to go on an end of term camp....however it seems that the bus that they were waiting for was the one that was hijacked and stoned with other children who were attending the camp...see the news story here.
things are getting a little out of hand to say the least, last night an english couple, on holiday, we hijacked and the woman, 28 years old, was killed, see this link.
please continue to pray for our country and our safety as we work in these somewhat dangerous communities....i am off to khayelitsha again tomorrow so would appreciate your prayers.
