Merry Christmas!
It's been a good year, and as we're sure that you're starting to gear up for the Advent season, we thought we'd send some greetings from Botswana. Recorded on Kgale Hill, just on the western edge of Gaborone. As we started recording a troop of baboons started getting a bit rowdy in the area, so that's what the confusion in the video is! We've both felt so blessed by our support from you during our time here, and we've really been learning about how God uses his whole Church to carry out his work, as we could not be out here with out you, in terms of finances and prayer support. Beyond the Bible studies, leadership training, prison ministry, and special needs children ministry which we are currently facilitating, we are moving towards expanding each of these through training more young adults to continue in these places, and are hoping to begin a women's Bible study, a women's soccer team, and kickoff a more intentional urban agriculture ministry.
Thanks for your love and support, and an early Merry Christmas to you! If there is anything else that we can send to let you know about the work that you are supporting here in Botswana!
Peace,
Nate and Taryn Dirks
