@ Gaborone

Its as been a while sicne we last touched based on what as been appening here in Botswana plainly because sorry to say, there  is no internet access at were we sleeping which is a seminary just north of Gaborone. Te past two days have been a glorious act and work of the Lord. We have just fell flat on our face to see how receptive students are – more so how students here see Christianity and God. The main campus at Gaborone is amazingly beautiful – the infrastructure is amazing and so are the students – there academics are on par but there is lack-off … something missing! The Gospel is missing – there is so much that the Lord has revealed on our student leaders on the trip but the is also a great revelation on how this campus really needs the true Christ of the bible. People believe that there is God…we all do – no questions asked about that! However it gets tricky when you ask them who is God – is nature, character, spirit, etc. The thing they do not grasp from the 4 days we have been on campus sharing is the point of salvation!
We just conducted a Solarium in the student meeting halls and met a guy by the name of Koane. Asking him to chose 2 pictures which would describe how his life is now he chose these.
For a second I was taken aback with what to say and how to say it to him. I just lost all words – I was confounded by how to approach this, to approach him, to approach sharing with him. For a second all had been lost of words – thinking now of the great God we serve, there has been such a releave that all works in man are by Him through His Son – all we can do is serve and proclaim what has been passed onto us as good stewards of the Gospel.


We have the last day on campus with the students as they close off for the end of the year and head off to their families – there are so many stories to share and so many experiences to relay. There is no other great power that has allowed me here and granted this opportunity. Great news – we managed to get a radio slot for this afternoon on campus with the UniBots Student Radio Station wowowowo cant wait for that.
Please be praying for our team as we continue learning more and more about who God is and His power seeing His power manifesting on campus for His Glory. For our team and the students on campus as they write their exams and encounter Him.

‘This is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent us His Son an atoning  sacrifice for our sins.’

    We are more and more proud of you... From Praying about going, and getting excited about it and letting Interns plan it with anticipation for what God will do, to raising support (steep road), to communicating the idea to the families... you really have FAITH in GOD... and you are Super FAT!!!! I hope you ate all the Botswana food, which is not too different I'll presume!...

    I'm very proud of CRU@UKZN!!!
