From my beautiful sister working with children in the slums of Brazil :)

May God bless you with discomfort
at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships
So that you may live deep within your heart.

May God bless you with anger
at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people,
So that you may work for justice, freedom and peace.

May God bless you with tears
To shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger and war,
So that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and
to turn their pain into joy.

And may God bless you with enough foolishness
To believe that you can make a difference in the world
So that you can do what others claim cannot be done
To bring justice and kindness to all our children and the poor.

The mission has finally been confirmed as South Africa...we'll be in a place called Worcester!

We have various things that we'll be looking into doing,these include helping out in schools (primary and poss secondary), possibly working with a community that lives in a rubbish dump, possibly working in an AIDS Orphanage, Street drama, prisons, alongside farmers and other stuff... a lot of the things we'll be doing will be decided as a team out there so i'll be more precise once it's happening!
