Concrete seating
Brother Siphiwe
Once a week we go to the hospital to chat to the patients, sing and pray as a result of one of our brothers being in the hospital. The guy in the bed next to him, Siphiwe, is now baptised as a result. Although our brother marcus has now passed away this has opened up more new friendships in the hospital. Last week on our weekly visit we bumped into Promise, a girl from the Happys school. It was fantastic to see her although not in those circumstances. But out of all the wards in the hospital we only visit 1 womens one. and she was in there! God's hand at work! I was aware she had cancer but had no idea she would be spending the entire 5 week holidays in the hospital recieving radiotherapy.
Her family dont want to see her, she is in care of social services when not at school (the children board at the school). So being in hospital is quite lonely for her not to mention upsetting with all she has to go through with cancer! When she has a day off from the clinic i take some of the girls from school to go see her. This sunday shes aloud out, shes coming to church and having a fun day with her friends from school!

BEC graduation
crazy jumble sale
Last saturday we held a jumble sale in the lamontville township in one of our good news centres. The ladies arrived in their PJ's and pushed and shoved into the the doorway at 8am, they were so excited they were running towards the tables, one lady even lost her shoes! We raised £60, all the money goes towards Noziphos electric wheelchair. Not bad considering everything was 10p and 20p! All the clothes and bric a brac were left overs from a jumble sale held in westville and they donated the leftovers to us, so no effort involved!
7am Birthday surprises
Simon had very subtly told us it was his birthday. In a joyfull volunteer way we went to surprise him on this very exciting day at 7am. We woke them up with the sound of our voices (you can probably guess which song). It was great!
