Our African Safari

The whole time we were in Africa, we were accompanied by Bill and Joan Mial, missionaries with Trans World Radio. We had a great time with the Mials. They are both fun people to be with and have a great passion for the grace walk. Bill's testimony is "I wish I had read this book 40 years ago." He and Joan are leading the way in making the message of the grace walk known across Africa.

While we were there, TWR gave us the gift of a safari. We went on Saturday afternoon at 4:00 and left on Sunday morning at 9:00 in time to preach in Manzini. It was really cold, but when we got in bed we found a hot water bottle already there to keep us warm. I've never loved a hot water bottle so much.

We ate warthog for dinner and wildebeest for breakfast. It was a unique experience for us that we will never forget. Thanks to Trans World Radio and to Bill and Joan Mial for giving us such a great gift!

I took these pictures while there. I was surprised how close we could get to some of the animals.
