Written last night (we manage to get internet each morning at the moment)

Wow what a mixed day!!!

We started the day with breakfast overlooking the amazing scenery of Swaziland. Met all the staff at the Potters Wheel Church and then prayed together. Then we were taken to visit a traditional Swazi culture village which was fascinating that the Swazi people used to live and some still do in some rural villages (Lloyd said it was like Swaziland equivalent to the Black Country Museum!)  We then  went back and had lunch with Pastor Kevin Ward whose paretns own a very palacel hotel in Swaziland's capital Mbabane. What fantastic food and views we enjoyed together.  We were then taken to the Teen Challenge Farm in Hawane, were shown round, met lots of staff and young people. We met a young boy of 11 who looked more 5-6 who came to Teen Challenge after been found abandoned living with the dogs in his community. This was the result because he suffered from Cerebral Palsy. This actually made national news. His body was very deformed with the disease, suffering from malnutrician, unable to stand up and unable to talk. But thanks to the amazing love and compassion of Teen Challenge and God's grace he has developed into a much stronger young boy who loves playing with the children.  When we met him he was beaming from ear to ear, jumping up and down constantly saying 'Abba' (apparently his favourite music!). You would say he was a different child.

We then settled into new accomodation in the Teen Challenge visitors lodge.  During the evening we witnessed a fantastic thunder storm which lasted for hours!! During this time we visited one of the local home groups and had a great time with them.  We've just been planning tomorrows lesson for some of the orphans.  We are so looking forward to a good nights sleep XX

Please pray for Jip's feet which remain swollen from the flight and are attracting the local mosquito population!
