Only 5 more days until the CSF team of ten leaves for South Africa!  Everyone is very excited, but this is also a crazy time as people finish up finals, go through graduation ceremonies (some of the team members, not all!), and frantically try to pack up all the clothes and supplies that they are going to need for three weeks of ministry at God's Golden Acre Orphanage.  We would really appreciate prayers for the team in the next couple of days as they pack and get ready to go, specifically that God would prepare them physically, spiritually, and mentally for what lies ahead.

God has been very faithful in providing for the trip in so many ways, including financially, and we thank each and every one of you for allowing God to meet our needs through you.  Since we've already seen His provision in so many ways and we haven't even left the country yet, it's easy to trust that he will continue to provide and bless in what lies ahead!

The team plans to post periodic updates whenever they have access to the internet, so please check back often to see what they are up to and to find ways you can be lifting them up in prayer.  Thanks again and God bless!

Rebecca on behalf of the team
