As we prepare for our time in Swaziland, we've found this to be a common question. Here's our short list of reasons why we're finally responding in obedience to God's call:
Because 1 out of every 5 children in Swaziland is orphaned.
Because nominalism is widespread and witchcraft remains influential.
Because children head 15% of all Swazi households.
Because we love the country, the culture, and the people.
Because Jesus instructed us to care for the least of these.
Because God has burdened our hearts to do something about it.
I know we haven't seen you guys in a LONG while, but just wanted to say hi. Excited to see what God is going to do in and through you guys in Swaziland.
