Sophia and I are heading to South Africa this summer with a small team from our church. We’ll be serving the kids and staff of Life Christian Academy as we run VBS-type games, lessons, and crafts. We’ll be sharing the gospel in a simple and meaningful way to share joy and truth with these precious and vulnerable kids, many of whom are orphans.
Life Christian Academy is an amazing organization that provides children with educational support, ministry and meals each day. Over the last 21 years they have reached into the heart of the neediest communities to built several schools including Early Childhood Centers, Kindergartens and After School Centers. They’ve also developed a Community Center, a Music Academy and a Training Center to keep children engaged and involved after school.
Last summer a team from our church built a new playground for the children at the elementary school. This year we will go back and treat the children to a “holiday club” with games, crafts and lots of LOVE!
I’m looking forward to sharing this experience with Sophia and to be able to show love to those in need across the globe. Sophia shares my love and enthusiasm for children so I’m eager to see her in action!
We would first and foremost love, your prayers, encouragement, and support as we embark on this cross cultural journey.
And… If you’re able to support us financially, that would be greatly appreciated!
