IWC Botswana 2016

We just hosted our first IWC (International World Changers) team. Cool Spring Baptist Church in Virginia sent 14 high school students and 4 adults to come minister alongside of us here in Botswana for a week. We started the week by doing 3 days of VBS and prayer walking/evangelism in the areas where the kids come from. We then took a rest day and went on safari. The team then drove 2 hours out to the village of Ditshegwane where their church from Virginia has helped plant a church by sending people 2-3 times a year to this village. We ended the week with a youth day. What a great team this was!!
