Dustin is Back!!

We retrieved Dustin from the airport this morning, so happy to see that boy! He is full of wonderful memories of South Africa and really feels like he has an adopted, second family in the Gorven's. We can never thank them enough for taking on Dustin, more than being his host for 6 weeks, loving and nurturing him. He will always treasure his time in South Africa and is anxious for our entire family to visit. God was all over this exchange, we see His hand so evident in the home he placed him in as well as St.Stithians (by the way it is the alma mater of Dave Matthews!). He had several opportunities to play the guitar in Sunday worship services as well as the piano during the Wednesday night youth services. He took several excursions around South Africa, one being with a friend of ours-Louis, from Johannesburg who attended church with us here in Thailand. He took Dustin for a weekend out to his parent's home which is situated in the middle of a huge Animal Preserve. We are so grateful to all that played a part of Dustin's wonderful experience and just pray that the Lord will heap blessings on them for how they blessed Dustin! So glad he is home!
