Well gang,
I am nearing the end of my journey. I am looking forward to coming home, which will be on the 19th of this month. For the last week, I have been in Jeffreys Bay. Due to a few schedule changes, I had some free time in between coming back here and going to the Vineyard Conference (which starts next week). So, I took off and spent a week in Jeffreys Bay. To all of you non-surfing types, J Bay is home to one of the worlds best surf spots. Needless to say, I was in heaven. It is kind of cool when God just gives you opportunities like that. Tomorrow morning, I leave to head to the Vineyard Conference for all of the Vineyard churches in Africa. I am expecting it to be amazing. Something else that is cool is that it worked out for Dr Thinus to come to the conference with me as well. I am excited that he will get to see a little more of what the Vineyard is all about. After the conference ends, I will head back up to Centurion with Dr T (Centurion is near Johannesburg) and then fly to Lusaka and then fly home, via Lilongwe, Malawi; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Rome; Washington DC, then good old Jacksonville. Please pray for me this week as I will be talking with some of the Zambian pastors about working alongside their churches in the future. Thanks a bunch and I can't wait to see you all.

Love ya,

dave
