Hi,

So I had a quiet weekend. I worked on a brochure which needed to be done urgently (by today). I will post that on the blog sometime soon.

The foxfires were away this weekend so I was living by myself. My neighbour Marne (who turns 7 this week) was going to sleep over with me on Friday night, but when he came over to my cottage he changed his mind. I think it was because it was so cold inside and he didn't want to sleep in a room by himself (he normally sleeps with Gloria, his granny). He was asking me 'Have I made you sad? Were you looking forward to me sleeping over?' It was sweet. I said for him not to worry about it, if he didn't want to sleep over than he didn't have to.

On Saturday afternoon I watched a movie called 'A Million Colours' which is a love story set during the Apartheid in South Africa. The film was very powerful and realistic. It depicted the brutal ways in which the black community were treated by white people, from being shot to being burnt alive. Even though I was very shocked by the amount of violence, I think it was good for me to see it and learn some South African history and see how times have since Nelson Mandela was released from prison.

Yesterday I went to GFLC (God's Family Life Centre) church again. It is the church that I have gone to the most while I've been here, I think because I have friends go there (who I met last year at the mission) and also I really like the worship, despite the fact that the pastor shouts.
Here are some photos of some of the staff that I work with that I took at a staff retreat we had and a conference last week.

Some of the women that I work with. Sandi (my boss) is the one wearing green.

The outside of GFLC - yes it is a tent.
