Message From Group 2

All,

Randy, Dave, Ben, and I have made it to Johannesburg, South Africa.

We left P'gh Int'l at ~ 2:30 PM on Thursday, and boarded our 2nd plan in D.C. at 4:30 PM EST, but it did not take off until ~6:30 PM. We landed in Jo'brg at 4:30 local time. 15 hrs in the air, 17 hours in the plane. The ride was fine, and we saw the large desert on the west coast of Africa (not sure what country that was). However, from our view in the plane, the country of South Africa appears to be a beautiful place, and comparable to any first world country.

Our next flight (to Ndola, Zambia) leaves at 12:20 local time tomorrow, so we have plenty of time to try to adjust to the 76-80 degree weather. We called the first group at ~9 PM (2 PM EST). All four of them have arrived at the house in Kitwe and are doing well. We are looking forward to joining them tomorrow.

Thank you all for your prayers, the Lord has been keeping His hand over the activities thus far,

Ron
