Swazi Vehicle Fund Update!

We have raised $3,050 for a vehicle in Swazi! Our goal that began in January was to raise $15,000 leaving, $11,950 still needed!  Thanks to many of you, we are reaching that goal one step at a time. This vehicle will make a difference in the lives of the people and children AIM ministers to causing us to quickly and efficiently bring food and supplies to their aid. Our Swazi staff will be blessed by this vehicle; it will make airport trips to pick up mission teams, cheaper and easier.
 

Please partner with us and help benefit our ministry in Swaziland! You can make a donation by going to www.swaziland.myadventures.org and click the ‘Give to our needs in Swaziland’ link on the left hand side of the page – designate gifts to the “Swazi Vehicle Fund” in the memo line.

April and Princesses  
“Saturday we are privileged to be doing a princess party for 200 of the little girls from a bunch of our carepoints! Right at this moment, as I am writing this, our house is full of gift bags and gifts being sorted for Saturday by the ‘Beyond The Game’ ladies who arrived today.” – Kreik Gerber, Swaziland base staff “I cannot wait for Saturday!!!! The girls will be getting new dresses, shoes, gifts, candy and a yummy meal! And pink cupcakes! We have never done such a big party for just girls! …..” To read more and see pictures from this Saturday’s Princess Party for the girls in Swazi check out Kriek’s blog.

My God is more than enough

“I look up to find my eyes fixed on a shirtless little boy with his belly pushing outward in hunger. His green pants are torn and dusty, barley able to stay up. He has scars and scratches all over his body along with oozing sores on his head. The flies are surrounding him and there is fear in his eyes. I ask him his name in siSwati and he replies, “Celemephilo”.” Debbie Feuerstein tells of a little boy’s story that touched her heart. “Neighbors have reported cases of Celemephilo stealing food, most likely due to hunger and his grandfather wanted to send him back to his father. His ‘make’ beats him to what seems no end, resulting in him sleeping in the bush. In turn, her father beats her from her lack of disciplining Celemephilo….. So I think, what can I possibly do?….. God says, “Love”. That’s it. That’s all I will do. Who am I? I am the hands of Christ. I will feed him, he’s hungry. I will clothe him, he’s naked.” To read to full story of Celemephilo click here.
 

Prayer Requests  
Currently, staff members; Toya Mac, Scott and Marcia Borg are leading a custom Vision Trip in Swaziland. Your prayers are needed for their safety and for their hearts to be lead by God to bring His Kingdom in Swazi.  

Are you interested in going to Swaziland?
We have opportunities for you! This year we are hosting four Vision Trips to Swaziland. A Vision Trip is a hands on experience for you to see the effect you as donors and prayer warriors have on our ministry. Trips are scheduled for August and October. If you are interested in participating in this heartbreaking, but life changing experience you can visit www.visiontrips.myadventures.org or e-mail [email protected] for more information.
