The weekend before last we had a fun weekend with the kids from Father’s House. They live in a more rural area about 30 minutes out of Harare so we brought them all to the city to have a sleepover weekend with us. We had so much fun! We picked them up on Friday and took them to the Ruthless concert at church, which was an awesome night of praise and worship. On Saturday we had fun around the house playing games and doing skits and then we all went to play putt-putt golf at a place nearby. They also had a big jungle gym and trampoline that we all had fun on. That night we had a braai (aka BBQ) and invited the pastor who supports the home and his family to come join us. The kids all made cards of appreciation for him as well as their mother, Mary, and presented the cards to them after dinner. The older boys made speeches that were all very sweet. After the pastor and his family left, we had two giant piles of blankets and mats that we all cuddled up on together and watched the Lion King until we fell asleep. On Sunday morning we all went to church and the kids had prepared a song the day before to sing in front of the church. Takunda, who is 8, led the group with his precious voice in Light of the World. All 11 of the kids at Father’s House are each so precious and we were blessed by our time with them as well as Mary that weekend.
