Visit to precious friends in Lesotho

Wow, what a sweet time we had visiting friends in Lesotho!  It was well worth the hassles of crossing the border, checking in and out of South Africa and Lesotho…  We found ourselves in line with some very interesting characters.   Sam was able to connect with Joe, his buddy and talented airplane mechanic from his days working there in Maseru.  Joe still works at the MAF hangar, and we were able to enjoy supper with him and his whole family.  

We had a great time with Matt and Carolyn Munson and their whole family, reminiscing about old times and catching up on what’s going on now in their lives and ministries.  We met the newest member of the family and even got to see Matt’s dad, Steve, who happened to be visiting.

Anna’s long time friend, Puseletso (I’m not sure I’ve spelled that correctly), a dear woman who she helped establish a sewing enterprise, was also home for a visit.  Her son, Kabelo, is one of the soccer boys that Sam & Anna were involved with while they lived in Lesotho.  Kabelo occasionally comes by bus to stay with Sam & Anna, a delight for all.

About danforth

As Covenant missionaries, we are working with all the tribal groups of the Central African Republic (CAR) but are trying to give special attention to the Fulani, a Musxlim, cattle herding, and semi-nomadic people group. We live on an experimental/training farm, near a mission station which has a hospital plus bible and nursing schools. We are establishing relationships with the local people groups through compassion ministries; Roy through agriculture and Aleta through public health and visitation, in order, ultimately, to share the good news of Jesus the Messiah with them. CAR is one of the least developed countries in the world and is currently in continual crisis (since the coup in March 2013), so reaching out in compassion is key to reaching their hearts. Due to the ongoing conflict and resultant ethnic cleansing in CAR, we are crossing the border to interact with our Fulani contacts.
