I am back in South Africa and working on my second week of ministry now!  Can I just express how much I love it here?  Last week was our first week jumping back into ministry and I am absolutely loving my internship and morning ministries!  Ithemba is where I am mainly working this semester, and I have already fallen in love with everyone there!  The children are crazy and the women are amazing!  Trinos is just as crazy as the kids are but that makes it fun!

    Last week was a lot of preparation for this week as we are beginning our classes tomorrow!  I am really excited to meet the other kids in my class (I am working with one of the ladies, Lusanda, and teaching 2nd and 3rd graders).  I have already met a couple of them and they are just wonderful!

    The J-Bay team here is wonderful!  I never knew how much you could love a group of complete strangers in such a short amount of time!  I have my African family here, full of Americans and Canadians, and I'm loving it!  I'm looking forward to what this year will bring and what God has planned for our all-girl team! 

    Today is a busy day, so I'll briefly explain my Tuesday schedule, well, this Tuesday!  This morning at 8:30am we have devotions, followed by leaving for morning ministry at 9am.  I am going to Humansdorp to Virginia's creche to see my little African babies!  I remain there until 1:30pm or 2pm, when I am picked up and brought back to Jeffreys Bay to go to Ithemba until 5pm.  This afternoon, Ellen and I are going from Ithemba to the gym for a spin class!  :-D  Then off to internet (I'm writing this in the morning and posting in the evening, so timing's a little off, but I'm sure you'll understand!)

    I'm off now for devotions!  Be on the lookout for a post about some things God has been revealing to me lately! 

    In Him,

    Bri
