Lawrence Habitat in Africa

 

In June, 2002, Jerry Feese and I (Ken Ratzlaff) went to Southern Africa to take part in the Habitat for Humanity - Jimmy Carter Work Project 2002 in Durban.  After JCWP, we went to Moçambique to visit another Habitat for Humanity project.  

After Moçambique, we enjoyed some beautiful places in Southern Africa.  

Each day, Jerry and I repeated the mantra taught us by Art & Ruth Thiessen in Gaborone:  "Another Beautiful Day in Africa!"   And that it was.

This web site describes that trip.
