Thought I'd do a quick update, as this is the first time I've seen my computer in a few days, to say that I arrived safely and all is well. :)
We arrive on Wednesday (I think, days get very mixed up) after having a grand total of about 3 hours sleep and went straight to the GAT house in Cosmo City. Our house is basic but nice and we're working on it- fairly light and animal bins have already made it in! We've spent this week just meeting the team (they're all lovely) and learning the history and touring some of Jo'burg and then next week we'll get stuck into all the Oasis projects. So I feel like a little bit of a tourist at the moment, but I'm loving it, and its sunny!
The kids around Cosmo are so friendly and our house is invaded quite a lot of the time, and the whole community spirit here is great, even though it's still a poor area. We've seen some but not all of greater Jo'burg but already we've seen such differences between the rich area and the townships like Diepsloot, right next to each other. It's so sad to see. So please pray for all the team at Oasis and our GAT team and for me, and I'll try update when I have a little more news!
Hope everyone is well and safe and love to all. x
