Last week a mission team of three men from Alice Drive Baptist Church of Sumter, South Carolina, came to Gaborone to partner with Old Naledi Fellowship to begin construction on a new kitchen at the church. Open Baptist Church (OBC) in Gaborone came along side to offer logistical support. Ajay Gotru, the church builder from OBC helped Jeff to coordinate efforts in planning and ordering materials, and with some local help, the construction began. This past week they were able to lay footers and pour a slab where the kitchen will be located. Over the past few years, a feeding station in Old Naledi has been operating with financial support from Manna Worldwide through a partnership with "Close Connections" out of Atlanta. This feeding station was located a short distance from Old Naledi Fellowship, but with the new kitchen it will be moved to the church grounds allowing for a closer connection with the church. This next week, a group from Freedom Fellowship of Greer, South Carolina, also partnering thru Close Connections has arrived to continue the construction.
