My highlight of the year...Wayne flew in from South Africa on the 5
th July. Shame..there was a delay of 2 hours in
Jhb which caused him to miss his connecting flight to Edinburgh, then had to buy another ticket to Edinburgh for a later flight. He eventually arrived in Edinburgh at 4pm. A
longggggggg time to not had sleep! Since then we have not sat still for a day! We left for the Scottish Mission Pathfinder camp in typical Scottish weather just outside
Dunfermline. We pitched tents in the rain and got all muddy. Not quite the welcome Wayne was expecting I think....
lol. Jimmy and Marcel had the privilege of baptizing 7 teens in a make shift pool as you will see from the photos below:
Its great having a fellow South African, an great friend...Mariette Kruger from George.
