Day 64: First Sunday at New Church

Lighthouse Church International (LCI) moved into a bigger venue. This is also may be my last Sunday in church if the girls and I plan on going to Mozambique next week and then we are going to Cape Town our last weekend here, which is in two more weeks. I'm amazed at how quickly this summer passed! I've been in Swaziland for over two months now and I feel like I've just been here for a week. I'm truly going to miss it here and the amazing people I've met on this journey.

Pastor Joe and Francis on Francis' last Sunday at LCI before he leaves for the States next week! Francis gave his testimony in front of a large group for the first time! I'm so proud of him and I'll miss his company. I'm so excited for what God has in store for him as he goes off to America to study at the University of Oklahoma. We definitely will be keeping in touch. After church, the rest of the youth group and I were planning a dual going-away party for Francis as well as for me and the girls. Since Francis is leaving Swaziland first, we primarily planning a party for his leave.

ShaCoria and I originally planned to hang out with Francis and Richmond at Mbabane with Chantal as well (Jessica decided to stay in Manzini). However, Francis couldn't make it and since Francis was Richmond's ride, Richmond wasn't able to hangout with us either. So Lena allowed Chantal, ShaCoria, and I to use her car to go to the Pub & Grill at The Gables in Ezulwini. I ordered the Chicken Schnitzel, which is the meal I usually get at every restaurant I visit here.
