A Jon Post<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n I think this might be a long post. I know some times it\u2019s hard to read these long ones but I feel like there\u2019s a lot that I need to tell everyone. So if you have a few minutes to read, jump on in. It\u2019s a fun story.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve had quite a ride. It\u2019s funny, we prepared our hearts ahead of time for some of the hard circumstances that might come but we didn\u2019t really expect it as SOON as we landed in Africa.<\/p>\n Sunday the 8th<\/strong><\/span> We found out our friends Botho and Faith, who had been taking care of our vehicle for the past two years, left town in to attend an extremely unexpected funeral of a dear family member.<\/p>\n Wednesday the 11th<\/strong><\/span> From Wednesday the 11th to Sunday the 15th<\/strong><\/span>
\nWe arrived in Botswana. We expected to pick up our truck that evening or the next morning, Monday the 9th.<\/p>\n
\nBotho and Faith returned to town and found out that thieves had broken into the hood of our truck and stolen engine parts. Botho took it to a shop to be repaired and we waited.<\/p>\n
\nWe were unable to get in touch with Botho because of phone problems. We spent these days praying and hearing the Lord say \u201cTrust Me. This is out of your control and in Mine. Trust me.\u201d<\/p>\n
