Looking Back...and Looking Ahead

The 2004 mission trip to South Africa, undertaken by a motley but loveable crew from TN (and 1 from FL) is now a distant yet vivid memory. But the relationships that were formed and the work that was done then continue to have their impact on both sides of the world.

We have a new group of 20 or so from Brentwood Baptist getting ready to head South again, and apparently will have some other Yanks there with us at our beloved guest house (a.k.a. Heaven Down Under). A few of us had to go back for more, and much of the team are 1st-timers.

For a verbose but hopefully entertaining recap of last year's trip, see my Notes and News entry called "South Africa: There and Back Again" (I steal from the best). You can also read all about it in previous posts to this blog (see the archive section).

And tune in again to see how the partnership between Brentwood Baptist Church and Living Hope will impact us as individuals and as a team. Sign me up for some computer time as soon as we get to Cape Town! Called it.
