We have arrived
We arrived in Rehoboth around 11pm last night, two hours behind schedule because of a plane delay. We met up with Jesse Rosten at the airport and headed off on a bus. Along with the plane delay, we were missing eight of our bags, including some of our tents... all but one have since arrived - please pray the final bag makes it here safely.
We spent the day getting to know the children and our surroundings, touring Rehoboth and seeing an AIDS clinic. We've had a powerful time so far, meeting the children and hearing some of their very difficult stories.
George and the staff have been very welcoming. Their work here is making a difference, and we're excited to be a part of it.
I've taken over 600 pictures so far... choosing which to post is difficult, but I've got a few below to try and give the feel of the place.
Tomorrow we'll hear Jon preach for the church here, and spend more quality time with the orphans.

Thanks for mentioning my hubby, Jesse. Very glad to hear you guys found him - probably wandering aimlessly or sleeping uncomfortably. Praying for you guys. "I know that everything God does will endure forever..." Ecc.3:14
Great to hear you've arrived and all is well!! The Lord is still in the business of answering prayer!!! -- Tks. for the pictures -- so what's this about you being at a 'spa'??? Have a great time -- do good work -- and be careful -- we want you all back safe and sound! Love - Jim & Susan
Hello! As Zahida's Uncle I am happy to check your site each night (for her Dad!) to see the latest progress.
We were all greatly relieved to hear everyone had arrived safe and sound in Rehoboth in Namibia and to see some of the photos posted. Hopefully a lot more to come.
I pray that God will watch over all of you there as you do His work in such a worthwhile way. God Bless you all. Walt.
p.s. Hope the last missing tent arrived?
