Hope/Heart for Africa Banquet

We had the priviledge of going to the Heart for Africa banquet (a local organization that helps care for the orphans in Swaziland) this past Saturday with a bunch of our friends.  It was such a fun night with friends AND we were able to give to a great cause...2 for 1! We were able to see an amazing artist paint a portrait of Christ holding a child, listen to Colby Coburn sing, and we were also able to hear about the children of Africa and the medical clinic that they desperately need to build there.  It was a great evening and really made Jason and I realize the need they have in Swaziland.  It was definitely emotional!
Here are a few pictures from the evening.....

We had a great evening and the Heart for Africa raised $78,000!  Yay!!!
