The time has come for us to depart for Swaziland once again! Lord willing we will be in the air tomorrow night (Tuesday June 2) and will return to Georgia August 1. We have decided to make tomorrow a day of prayer for Swazi and are anxious to ask you to join us.
Will you please take a moment to pray as you read through this blog and then remember these people and requests throughout the day on Tuesday as well? We are so thankful for the prayers and support of many people who join with us in bringing hope and help to Swaziland.
Please pray for the following:

Count me in…..

What a joy to pray for you all! Thanks so much for posting the lovely pictures of all the Swazi AIM staff. I surely do love and appreciate those guys…and gals. 😉
Give them all my greetings…especially the D-Team, Pastor Gift, the Gerbers, and the Brocks.
And if you see my baby (Anna) who will be there in 3 weeks, please give her a big ole hello from her mama…though I won’t ask you to hug her because she’s not the huggy, touchy type. Who knows, maybe community living will change that. Or not. 😉
Hambani Kahle, Marcia and Scott!

Paul and I have your prayers in motion. We have enjoyed bicycling with Bert. Love the pictures. We also have been praying for contentment and to be more like Him.
