Bulembu

A few pictures from our trip...

We have arrived! Navigating through the J0-burg airport... ready for showers and beds!
















Touring Bulembu - abandoned homes from the mining days. Many are being renovated for homes that house up to 8 orphan children and an Auntie. Each of us were placed in one of these homes spent our afternoons there playing with the children.







The view from Bulembu Lodge (where we stayed all week). The picture hardly does it justice.
















Breathtaking...
















Hard work! Working at 'leveling' the road so that the next group can lay brink for easier travel. Many used a pick-axe for the first (and hopefully last!) time!




















We got to love on LOTS of children!




















Nicole, Rachel, Jessica, Jessi, Rachel, Monica... hiked up to a view point for the sunset
















The Bulembu family - Iowa, Tennessee, Vermont, New Hampshire represented!














To hear and see much, much more, come to First Reformed on Sunday, August 15. We will be sharing at both services (9 and 11 am). Come to both to hear the whole story!
