Pics from the Cape

We are back at Alabanza, planning camp and getting settled. Here are the pics requested:

Cape Town

These posts are just going to be short and sweet sorry my internet is not very fast. We are here in Cape Town until Tuesday. Its amazing, all you imagine and more. I went to Cape Point today, southernmost tip of Africa. I sat on the side of this mountain and just looked at the beauty the Lord has created and cried. I really can not describe. I took pics and will hopefully get to post soon. I feel like Cape Town has just been this blessing that the Lord has been saving for me...after all those long nights of thinking Lord why am I here what am I doing with my life and then to show up here and let Him just minister to me through his creation. My heart has just been full of joy, I never sleep in the car just waiting to see what the next turn holds. If you know me you know I can't be in the car without falling asleep.

We return to Alabanza Tuesday night and then hit the ground running preparing for camp and such.

We arrived in Jo'burg yesterday afternoon, got somewhat of a nights rest and then jumped back on a plane this morning. We will be in Capetown until Tues. Let me tell you it is a blessing to be here. Capetown is beautiful and you can see two different oceans from the balcony of the house we are staying in. I will probably spend a lot of time out there :). I have a very slow connection right now so just wanted to check in and let you know that I'm doing great.

Love and miss you all...Han and Drew only 2 brown cars and they were security hmmmm

Here we go....

I haven't posted nearly enough on here. So many little details of my life that I have yet to share. Not that I will have more time in Africa but I will post when I get there...hopefully. I am almost all packed. I'm convinced I have too much stuff, how do you pack for 3 months in the dead winter of africa???

Okay more thank you notes to write...if you don't receive one its not because I don't love you, I just may have fallen asleep before I got to your name :).

My Support

Here is a little update on my support. My plane ticket costs about $2200, then my living expenses will be about $3400. So far the Lord has blessed me with around $1000. I have been amazed at some of the sacrifices people are making to help me get to South Africa. My mom's hair dresser has offered to give me her tips for the month of May and put my letter up at her chair. People that my mom and dad work with are donating money and some of them have never even met me. All that to say it is very confirming that I am supposed to go on this journey. I continue to be amazed...

-make it payable to me: Amber Montgomery
