Mission to South Africa

Earlier this week, we returned from a mission trip to South Africa. It was an exciting trip, one that allowed us to visit with our daughter, Jennifer, who is currently the mission administrator of Thrive Africa. She is in her third year in Africa, and up until January of this year, was the director of Leadership Summit. She still oversees Leadership Summit, but now has many more responsibilities. The following posts relate the experiences we had with her and with our group of 7 people as we helped share the Good News of Jesus in South Africa. Besides the four of us (Marty, Bob, Andy, and Becca), Greg and Muriel Jordan from St. John, and Margaret Mueller from our church were on the mission with us. Margaret flew over with us, and Greg and Muriel met us in Johannesburg.
