Once every 2 months we take food up to Ndwedwe. A soup kitchen for orphans in the middle of nowhere run by Jabu and vincent, a couple we met through the bible education centre who are now our baptised brother and sister. We had taken food up in november, the next one was due january. Jabu had asked us to give the children there a christmas by giving each child a present. 3 weeks in advance this was no problem, we asked people in the meeting to donate old toys. Kim had kindlt wrapped all 50 toys up for us and we were ready to go. December 23rd, a day before we were due to go to Ndwedwe we got a phone call from Jabu requesting a whole lot of food that we must bring also. Each person in the meeting normally brings one food item and together they collect enough for us to take to ndwedwe. How were we going to collect this shopping list of food in 8 hours?
We stood outside the supermarket with a trolley and some leaflets and prayed. Each leaflet had one food item on and we handed them out to everybody that entered the supermarket. It was such a fantastic experience! most people that we handed out a leaflet out to bought what was on it! We filled 2 trolleys to the brim! There was way more in there than Jabu had asked for!
When your working for God its incredible to watch how he blesses your efforts!
and this is something that can be done back in england!
