To everyone at LowCountry Community Church who helped with fundraising for my friend Mzo’s house: Great progress is being made.As I shared here last month, the desire of Mzo’s heart is to live full-time in Red Hill so he can better minister to the residents there. On Friday we took a significant step toward that by moving a collection of materials to the site where he plans to build.
The materials once formed a shack in the Masiphumelele township, where Mzo currently lives. I think most of us would view this pile of scrap wood and aluminum as, well, a pile of scrap. But I promise you, Mzo looks at it and sees a home. He’s excited, and he’s grateful to everyone who contributed to help him acquire it.
Incidentally, it took two trips to get everything to Red Hill, but the unloading process went fast, thanks to a group of eager boys who descended on us to help. It looks like Mzo’s hoped-for bonding opportunities have already begun.
