december plans

on thursday (dec. 6) i'm leaving for zambia. the mcc swaziland team is attending the mcc south african retreat there, with a two-day side trip to see victoria falls first. we will arive back in swaziland on december 15, to jump right into preparations for the fbs youth camp, which begins the next day (dec 16). the youth camp will run until december 22. the fbs office will then be closed for a two-week christmas holiday. then i've been invited to spend christmas with some friends in pietermaritzburg, south africa.

so i'm really excited for this chance to travel, to discover more of southern africa, and to be renewed (retreat) and then exhausted (youth camp). in the midst of all this excitement, i'm not sure what my internet access will be like. but i'll be in touch as much as possible. blessings on your own december activities.

Mimi,

Your December plans were exhaustive just to read them. By now I believe you are on a “real vacation.” I truly hope you are finding the time off and the new scenery relaxing and rejuvenating. There is also no doubt the possibility of your witnessing new or different hardships that people face, as you travel.

It has been good to see your adjustment to this new area of the world, its people, and your purpose for being there (in Swaziland). Blessings in this season of the celebration of Christ’s birth.

In Christ,
George Thompson
