Also on this same day, we visited Maphungwane, the area the last volunteer team came and worked with. Since revivals, it has been growing by leaps and bounds, so much that the people can no longer fit into the pastor's home. We had church this past Sunday outside on their grass mats, followed by baptism of all the many who were saved during revival, and at the following services. We witnessed 57 new believers be baptized, plus one more that stole our heart ... it was Sarah, #58! You all know how scared Sarah is of water, and today you would have never known. She walked right up to the baptismal and waited with Uncle Wayne (our team leader). Once they presented her, she got right in and was ready for her turn! I wish you could have been there to celebrate this day with us, and to hear the beautiful sounds of these new believers sharing testimony and singing to the Lord. As we were in the baptism service, the pastor drew our attention to the sun (which was shining brightly), and there was a rainbow of light circling it. I tried my best to get pictures, but it was too bright. God is working in the hearts of many here, and we have been so blessed to be a witness to His mighty Hand. Thank you for continuing to pray for our family and the people of Swaziland! Thank you for all your love, support and prayers!
