So I am now in Capetown. We are staying at a Manor. It used to be the best place to buy a slave in This area. It is a wine estate?? they have vineyards, . Now it is owned buy christians that run a hotel school and restaurant. They are awesome. Today we visited a orphan ministry and special needs place. Also apart of the same couple that now own the manor. They are so awesome. I am in their offices for their hotel school and we are all able to use the computer (praise the Lord!) its' beautiful! Capetown is definitely the most beautiful of all of SA I have seen. WE came back to manor and Kari and Antwan made us an awesome dinner and we ate outside in the grass at tables with white table cloths in the sun light. So beautiful. Happy Fathers Day DAD!!!! Love you :) There were lots of people and a couple families. Good food!! Tonight we are joining up with a ministry to go on the streets of Capetown and witness and pray with prostituted women, and whoever else comes our way while we are out! In Durban I was so touched by the Lord as we walked the streets by the beach. everyone was watching the soccer matches on the beach with a big screen. young kids drinking alcohol, homeless people, tourists, girls that are outside of clubs etc. WE were with these amazing women. Petra and Auntie Sylvie. Small but mighty women of God, they were pulling prostituted women out of clubs and lining them up telling us to pray for them! We did :) You could see several of them were moved. Especially when We told them they were beautiful and that God had dreams and plans for them. So much more to say. Two guys from India walked buy and jokingly said " you guys got a light?" for his cigarett. I was thinking , no but I have the light of Jesus, and before I said it Petra said what i had thought. no but we have the light of Jesus!" cool. The one guy had, Ricky, but Faru hadn't. he just had a blank stare. Petra said, well thats wonderful news! We pray about sharing Jesus with those who haven't heard about Him. Our group had about 6 people including Petra and Sylvie. The rest of the Exodus Cry team was separated into other groups. Big groups of people around a regular person, let alone a broken one, is too overwhelming. There is too much to share!!! Ok so we led Faru and Ricky to the Lord!!! Faru the one that wanted a "light" received THE light that night while I held his hand!!! wow!! His face changed and he was kinda unsteady and sweating after we prayed for him. We asked if what he was feeling was good or bad, he said emphatically, GOOD! so we prayed again for the Holy Spirit to touch his heart and then told him what he was feeling was Jesus, and that Faru could talk to Jesus any time he wanted to. Faru's countanence and spirit was so sweet !!:) I was so blessed to witness that. I have also enjoyed singing with worship times in SA. As a group and last night here in Capetown I joined in with a worship team on stage. We did the IHOP harp and bowl model. A big deal for me to make up choruses boldly and sing out!!!! God has filled me with boldness in sharing the gospel to strangers on the street and singing the word with boldness in a crowd of people. !!! Wow, God is doing so many cool things in my heart in overcoming fear and just being bold for His glory. It is such a blessing. Sorry this is a bit disconnected and misspelled! I gotta run. Love you all pass this on!!

> Hey I love you guys. Just wanted to let you know that in Durban, SA our van got broken into. My purse with drivers license, debit card, bible and journal got stolen. I called and reported my debit card right away! I am ok. Several others got there stuff stolen as well. We were praying with a pastor at a church down town at the time of robbery. The church lease was purchased right before an escort service bought a lease next door. The church wants to minister to prostituted women, and they probably have a brothel next door. The back is barbed wired up like I have never seen. Even the gate. The windows all covered. A girl came to the front while we were waiting for police to check out our van. We tried to keep her from going in and pray with her. She said they were holding her pasport and documents. Typical of Human Trafficking. I got to run. I am paying for internet at a internet cafe. Don't worry, I am fine. I had 110. us dollars and that should be enough for my trip. Love you,
> Steph
