We are here!!!!! :) Africa is great! Today we went to the mall and let's say it's not like the mall back home. We made it a blast anyway! We ate at the food court and as soon as we sat down all the fast food restaurants were throwing menus at us left and right. They wanted us to buy "their food", we found that pretty humorous :) After that we came back to our little hotel and met our translators and hit the slums. The slums was an eye opener! When we first started to witness I was so nervous! But one of the translators told us to never fear, because God is with you! Can I just say WOW!!! God was with me there the whole time :) He was there when I was telling about his word, or even holding a little boys hand. He is doing some awesome things already, and guess what??? This is only day ONE!! Meghan and I met the sweetest girl, Catherine, who is about our age. She was telling us about her walk with Christ and it just blew our minds. We also sang songs with the little kids and just had a blast! We aren't the only ones teaching, they are teaching us too! Tomorrow we go and distribute food to people:) And I can't wait!! Well let's just say I love AFRICA!!!
