Here is a great letter of thanks to the good people from the Intersect GlobalX mission team. The group came over from Northpoint Ministries – with whom we are an international partner, and were involved in identifying and helping out in Community Projects – The Intersect Project was the name of the overall project. The below letter was from Kathy; a member of Southpoint Church:
I want to start by saying a Huge thank you. I have spent my whole 35 years in South Africa. I have traveled overseas, I have done charity work, I give to the poor and yet I have never been to an Orphanage let alone into a location.
Giving from a Distance always seems the safer option. I really felt like I was out of my comfort zone today in Khyalitsha, the sad part being that it took a group of Americans interested in helping OUR community to get me there.
You must understand I went with great hesitation as I have a knack for attracting and collecting stray animals, and I was not sure if I could trust myself with 100 orphaned children. I am so relieved to say that I have come away from there not wanting to save these kids, as it was shown to us how well they are taken care of, there is so much love and warmth there. There are definite needs that need to be met and I would love to get involved to help where I can.
I am very troubled with the thought that there are child headed homes and I think this is what God wanted me to hear today. I am extremely happy that Rossie is going to be concentrating on this in the near future and I would love to help out here.
Once again thank you and to all from Atlanta, it was a really true experience, one I will never forget.
Thank you
