Featured Pictures: “Field of Dreams” God’s Amazing Provision!
Dear Friends and Family,
Greetings in the name of Jesus!
Many of you might remember the movie that came out years ago called “Field of Dreams”. The memorable line from the movie was “If you built it….they will come!” This past week, we experienced a miracle by an amazing God…..he orchestrated the building of something …..and yes, once it was built………they did come!
Face Painting… WWJD
We had the pleasure of spending the last week with an awesome group of people who came to visit Swaziland from the United States. They were from an organization that Children’s Cup partners with called Mission of Mercy. Mission of Mercy is a child sponsorship organization that helps to meet the physical and spiritual needs of children in poverty-stricken areas of the world. Visitors from all over the United States came to meet their sponsored children and share the love of Jesus with them and many others.
Feeding Time!
We spent the week at our Children’s Cup CarePoint in New Village, Swaziland. The team came with love in their hearts to impact a generation of young children for the Kingdom of God. The week consisted of Bible stories, craft projects, playing games, learning songs, a clothes distribution, face painting and a special “child sponsored picnic”. They also had a few projects planned for the CarePoint like painting a mural and grading the soccer field.
Soccer Field… Almost Done!
After accessing the soccer field, Randy and two other guys on the team decided to walk down to the construction company a couple blocks away and ask them if we could pay them to come and grade the soccer field because the project was much bigger than “two men and a shovel”! The manager on sight said, “No you do not have to pay us, it is about time we do something for the community!” In no time at all, we he had a team of six workers and a bull dozer at New Village CarePoint for over two hours. During those two hours, word spread throughout the community that something was happening at the CarePoint! Excitement was building and children were everywhere …….. “If you build it, they will come!” and that is exactly what happened! I think we had over 250 children at the CarePoint that day.
The Team… On Finished Field
The Lord did something amazing that day! He cares so much for each of these little ones. He has provided a safe place for the kids to play, food, Christian education, and now one of the coolest soccer fields in the area! Thank you God!
May the Lord Bless you!
Love,
Randy and Karen Brennan
