The Zimbabwe Serve team: a day of rest and reflection at the falls.

One more from the Zimbabwe Serve team: a wonderful thank you from the primary school students after receiving new pencils.

The Zimbabwe Serve team has been busy at work! We have distributed the reusable sanitary pads, made soap with the students, continued working on the farm, worked on clinic needs and had a soccer clinic where we distributed school supplies!

Such a gift to have Rev. Karen Horan as our guest preacher yesterday! If you missed it here are the links to watch it at either service. It’s SO worth it! “Come and See!” Praise Service: https://livestream.com/westlakeumc/events/8220605 Traditional Service: https://livestream.com/westlakeumc/events/8220610

Loving getting reports back from the Westlake team in Zimbabwe in mission through It Starts With Soccer!

Day 2 of the Zimbabwe Serve Trip included visiting two homesteads, two schools, and the clinic. One highlight was joining this women's health group who were practicing songs for an upcoming competition promoting health and hygiene. These same women will help to clean the clinic on a weekly basis.

The Zimbabwe Serve team made it safely to Zimbabwe and had our first planning meeting with Rev Nyika during a sunset cruise on the Zambezi. We are excited to tour the schools and clinic tomorrow where we will be working.
