First Day At Project Canaan

Today was an amazing day! I went to the dedication of the new Chapel at
Project Canaan. It was beautiful!! It was on the top of a hill with an
amazing view, it was so peaceful. Very meaningful service, they spoke of
Aids and one man spoke that he was deliberately given aids and has had it
for 18 years, he now helps people with aids all over Swazi. It made me sad
to hear how affected Swaziland has been by the aids virus. I always knew
this was true , but it really hit home.

Project Canaan is a place of HOPE for the children who are left parentless
due to aids. It is a beautiful 2500 acre farm that a year ago was just brush.
They are getting ready to build beautiful housing for children and Babies
to live. The farm will provide them with food and have plenty left over to
sell.

We then went to a beautiful little lake on the property where we all had a picnic lunch.

I enjoyed a little game of soccer with a rock and new friends.



I met many people from Taiwan,they were awesome and raised enough money to buy 15000 blankets for the people of Swaziland.

We then took a tour of the property on a comvie. It was a blast, kinda reminded me of the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland. Sorry Disney, this ride was better;)
I'm tired now and going to sleep, can't wait for vbs in the community tmrw.
God Bless!
