They have shared with over 3,000 (mostly kids) so far and about 1,800 have responded!!!
Working alot too with the Disabled Centers where orphaned kids with disabilities stay.
It has been very eye opening and emotional for all of them, yet powerful. She is seeing
breakthrough in the Interns and all of them have had a chance to share their testimony
and witness.
Last week they stayed in a remote area with no running water and a hole in the ground for
a toilet :) Everyone handled it great she said. They were able to go to a neighbors place
a take showers twice while they were there. Temperatures have been in the 70's.
Rich wanted you to be aware that CNN has been showing some news about rioting in S Africa.
They are all safe and are not in danger. They are staying in a
Baptist Campus that is fenced, gated and locked and he will not be taking them anywhere to
put them in danger. It is all good, he was worried that if some of the parents heard or saw anything
from watching the news they might panic, so was just wanting to reassure us.

Thanks for the update, even though I know I can trust God and the Franzen's it was nice to hear for sure that our kids are doing ok. When I read the report from SA yesterday it just made me pray a little more for them.
I just got off the phone with Jamie. It truly sounded like she was next door. I could hear Lorraine in the background calling “Hi Mom!!” They all had just finished their evening meal and were getting ready for bed. The long flight over was good, esp. the first leg where everyone had their own TV. Most slept on the second flight. Everyone has stayed in good health. Their compound where they are staying is in quite a nice part of Johannasburg. (great view from atop a hill overlooking the city) The beds (yes beds, not cots) are comfortable. The food, according to Jamie, is unique, this coming from one of the world’s pickiest eaters. A little chilly in the mornings but very nice during the day. The best part of the trip…the culture, the people and truly feeling that God is working thru them. The worst part…Crouchy “borrowing” her bag of Cheetos and never seeing it again. My prayers will continue for their safety as they journey out daily to do God’s work
