New Day, New News

Last night, as Donna and I were sitting around visiting with Mom and Dad, the phone rang. It was Kate calling from Texas. It was about 10 (I think) and she was hanging around waiting to drive to Dallas to start her trip to Africa. They were leaving the GE site at 1:30 a.m., driving to Dallas, flying to New York, then some mystery city in Africa and finally onto Johannesburg. They expected to arrive in Jo-berg at about 5:30 this afternoon.

Kate was so excited. They've spent most of the last few days learning curriculum because they're going to be teaching school to teenagers who belong to the Zulu tribe for their first week in S. Africa. Then they'll be going back to the city to run VBS and do other kinds of ministry things.

Too exciting for words,

Just a quick update....I had a phone call from Kate Friday afternoon at 3:30. She had arrived in Johannesburg about an hour before and was finally making her call home. It was 11:30 at night and she was tired and looking forward to being horizontal for a while. More news when I know more :)
