Welcome To Your Virtual Missions Trip!
Day 5 - South Africa

Hello Capital Family!

We have departed Burkina Faso and are traveling approximately 5,400 kilometers (3,400 miles) to South Africa. We say au revoir to an amazing organization in Burkina Faso, Feeding Nations Through Education and HOWZIT to South Africa! Remember, if you missed the zoom call you can catch up here. Tonight at 6pm PST is our virtual prayer walk with Google Earth. Pastor Armen Divanyan will be joining us and we are anticipating a powerful time together.

Meanwhile, today we visit Kirk and Marlene Spain in the country of South Africa…

South Africa
South Africa is a very big and very diverse country. Since the abolishment of Apartheid in 1994, South Africa has been dealing with racial tensions much like here the United States. But it's not called the Rainbow Nation for nothing! South Africa lives up to this name loudly and proudly with over 60 million people, nine provinces, multicultural cities, and over 30 different dialects and languages! Now that’s diverse.

Fun Facts
  • South Africa boasts the most well-developed railways in all of Africa, with the system's central point in Johannesburg!
  • Technically, the lowest point of South Africa (which is the lowest point of the entire African continent) is 1,050 miles south from the mainland! The two islands, Marion and Prince Edward, are uninhabited except for a scientific research facility and bunkers for scientists.

Devotional
Our devotional message today comes to us from Kirk Spain over at African House.
A Taste of South Africa
You’d be hard pressed to find a South African dish without some kind of meat in it, and this dish is no different! Bonus fun fact: South Africa is Africa’s largest meat producer! If you don’t eat meat, go on and read the recipe carefully to see what meat-substitute would be best for the dish. Download this unique recipe below and follow along in your very own kitchen!
