This morning we were able to visit the administration building for the Botswana Prison Service. We joined their weekly Wednesday morning devotional time and Jon brought the message for all of the prison guards in attendance.

We then met with the Commissioner of the Botswana Prison Service. In this meeting, we gained insight into the current state of the prisons in regard to rehabilitation programs and follows up after release. This is where the Thaba’s have really stepped in with Healthy Family Foundation.

After this meeting, we were able to have lunch with three of the women who go into the prisons on a weekly basis to speak and share the Word of God to the inmates. These women are of various backgrounds whose testimony could relate on a deeper level with those who they are sharing with.

Later in the afternoon, we visited the Mmankgodi Village.  Here we were able to attend a small service and hear the testimonies of several members of the community. 

Prayer Requests:
We will be visiting another village tomorrow, so we ask for prayers for traveling mercies and for the people who we come in contact with to open their ears and their hearts to the Word.
We also ask that you keep in your prayers the people who we spoke to in the village today. They are dealing with some very dark and tragic situations, so any and all prayers are definitely needed. Here are some names to keep in your prayers:
Joseph and Masedi Modutlwe and their kids Brdiea (28), Aurelia (13), Zephania (12), Leroy (7)
Gabautwane Oagile
