Short Term Experience in Missions (STEM) Swaziland.
That is what I was preparing this group of 17 students for over the weekend in Johannesburg. It's an exciting venture to see this group set out on a mission to advance the Gospel. The major focus of the group will be ministering to and connecting with individuals and families HIV/AIDs virus. Everything from making meals and cleaning sheets to praying with and for family units will be taking place.
Sihle and Lwazi are the the two representatives from Durban going on the trip. They are key guys with a great love for the Lord and individuals. both are in my Saturday morning group and the Durban Nav Core Team.
Along with our guys from The University of Kwazulu-Natal there are also students represented from Wits University(Johannesburg), VAAL Tech(the mining area near Johannesburg), University of Cape Town(Cape Town), University Western Cape(Cape Town), and a couple Zimbabwe students going to the University of Botswana.
Our weekend was spent looking into God's word for inspiration and direction for missions, building team unity, learning about Swazi Culture, receiving practicleministry training skills and getting first hand stories of past students experiences on a STEM. The trip ends 2 July. Pray for the team and for the advancement of the gospel.
