D-Day Plus 2: Hope Jo'burg

Now typing this from Ps Henry and Lerato's house. So blessed by their hospitality - Ps Henry took us on a few hours' drive around Johannesburg. And his 3 children are very well-behaved - not to mention adorable haha.

Anyway! We recorded a video message from the couple. It's very inspiring. They aim to plant 1000 churches in South Africa alone. And Lerato shared about her vision to see Hope Church SCHOOLS built in SA - and with the SA government's support some more. :D The reason for all this is because they want to impact this generation of young people, since the majority of SA's population is young people. And the vision is to see these young people become men and women of God who'll go on to be missionaries, church-planters, salt and light to Africa and beyond!

At that point, I was reminded of the vision of HopeKids ministry - to fulfill the Great Commission by seeing the renewal of the spiritual generation for Christ.

Jet-lagged, but so so so happy and joyful to see what God is doing!

Oh yes! Got to know a new bro in Christ - Thabiso. His MM skills and design are simply wonderful! I asked him to send me a copy of his designs for Peter and the Hope MM team so that we can learn from his designs... gosh.

And he asked me how to set up a website. LOL. So Hope Jo'burg and Hope S'pore - spiritual exchange programme haha.

And the kids are so cute. LOL. When Ps Henry asked Thato, his youngest son, to say "Hallelujah!", Thato was sucking his thumb. So he just went: "Mmm-MMM-Mmm-MMMH!!" Then Ps Henry challenged him to say, "Praise the Lord!"

"Mmmm. Mmmmmm. Mmmmmm."

ROFL. We all almost died laughing. The things kids say...

It's such a great great great joy to see like-minded bros and sisters actively playing their roles in fulfilling the Great Commission in their lifetimes... Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or even dare to dream of, to God be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, through all generations, both now and forever! Amen!

Ok. Praise God. We got tickets to Kenya finally. Prayer is answered. Thanks to all who prayed for us to get tickets to Kenya. Keep praying for us!

Going off now. Love n God bless, YA
