We had a great day today in Mafeteng, a village in the foothills where we began a ministry during the last visit to Lesotho. We started the day early and travelled 2 hours. We went through the lowlands enjoying the beautiful landscape.
We were greeted by the women of the village followed by a steady stream of children. When the bubbles came out, I think the women enjoyed it the most. I got a real kick out of watching adult women chase after bubbles trying to catch them. Adults becoming children and forgetting the cares of the world for a short while!
The neediest children received shoes and blankets. Others received clothing that was donated from Sarasota. Families received seeds for gardens from Hope Seeds (Bradenton, FL). But, the most treasured gifts were the Sesotho Bibles. Some traded their seeds for a Bible. What a joy it is to see such hunger for the Word of God!
Thank you for your prayers,
Mike
