This past weekend


We are trying to do a little bit of blog catch up before this week. Saturday we went to Old Biscuit Mill again. We both had eggs benedict, and it was incredible! That night we went with a large group to Mesopotamia. It was an authentic middle eastern restaurant complete with belly dancing and low tables with floor pillows as "seats." We ate nan, which is like flat pita bread, and for our main course we had chicken and lamb. Sunday morning we went to Hillsong Church again. The guest preacher was Mark Gungor who is actually from the United States and was hilarious. We ended the night with a buffet dinner at a local restaurant with all 150 students. Today we are starting our service week. This afternoon we are going into Sir Lowry's Pass, which is a township located about 45 minutes from Cape Town. We are split into small groups of about five and paired with Soup Moms around the community. Tonight we are going for a couple of hours to spend time with them and eat dinner with our families. We are so excited to have this opportunity to learn and grow from this experience. Be sure to look out for more posts soon!
