My car

Here is the whole story on my car. A few weeks ago I met Mike from OM South Africa and I told him about the fact that I needed a car. He sayd he will try to help me out and organise something for me. So two days later he rang me to say he had already testdriven a Golf and it is a good price (3500 Euros). That's a great help because I don't know much about cars, except that second-hand cars are more expensive here and that it is better to buy a car in Pretoria than in Cape Town, because of the rust. I dont think it could have worked out any better.

So last Saturday Ncanyiso (easier NK) and I flew to Jo'burg where we were picked up and drove to Pretoria. OM South Africa is situated in Pretoria so I know some people there. Sigi celebrated his birthday and many other people I know were there, too. So I met Mike, Esme and Yvonne again. That was great!

Ben and Anne were also there! I had expected them to be in Mocambique on an outreach, but they are only going this week. Just like me, Ben also grew up in St.Matthäus church in Bremen. I think many people get us mixed up (same name and both South African missionaries). Ben and Anne work and live as staff at the training base there. That is where we stayed over night.


At 4am the next morning we hit the road. 1500 kilometers Africa (that is 930 miles). The long roads cut through beautiful dry land, but it doesnt change much over the entire distance. It looks pretty much like you see on the photo. We arrived safely at 8pm. Thank you for all your prayers.

PS: A short clip.
