the village of hope seeks to help children infected or affected by hiv, aids and tb in two different ways: we have a 9 bed children's unit to support those infected by hiv and aids and we also run a community-based sports and lifeskills outreach in the informal settlements and squatter camps each afternoon.

this blog has been set up to allow the key members of the team at the village of hope to share their thoughts, photos and experiences as we work in the community of grabouw in south africa

making hay (sorry firewood) whilst the sun shines!

doh...now we've blocked the road we
 need to let tim's bakkie out!
it might be winter here but we are enjoying some very warm weather at the moment, however when the sun sets it's getting really cold, hence the need to cut some of our tall pine trees to create so much needed firewood.

arron, tyler and johan have been busy felling some of our older pine trees, please pray for them as they do so!

life with out arry...


on thursday evening we placed young arron on the plane home to england for his three month discipleship training course with YWAM (youth with a mission), the team he will be joining is then coming back to grabouw to serve in the community via our sports outreach during the 2010 football world cup.....


we will miss arron whilst he is away as he has become a key member of the team here at the village of hope, it's also a new period for me (tim) and maz as we learn to live without any of our children around since we first started dating 23 years ago.....talk about derby and joan!......
