May I suggest some books to read on your trip?



Since you all will be traveling for over 24 hours, and may want to consume some of that time reading, I thought I'd give you a couple book ideas that go right along with what your trip is all about.

The first two books, Fields of the Fatherless and Red Letters are written by Tom Davis. He has personal experience of doing ministry in Swaziland. His books will rock your world. I challenge you to stay the same after reading them.

The third book There is no Me Without You is very dear to my heart because it's about Ethiopia BUT it's equally about HIV/AIDS, the pandemic of the 21st century. This book really educates the reader on this disease,what it is doing to Africa, and the world. Since Swaziland has the highest concentration of AIDS Orphans per-capita, this would be a great book to teach you both about the plight of the AIDS Orphan and AIDS itself. Again, be ready to be changed.

God be with you all. May He mess you up forever!!
