Early in June I had the enormous privilege of spending 9 days at and around Elephant Sands Lodge, located near Nata in north-eastern Botswana, participating in Gospel on Safari where I and eleven other believers spent time with our Creator and His Word in the most amazingly unspoiled natural surroundings. Without a question it was one of the most impactful experiences of my life and I am immensely grateful for and humbled by all that was revealed to us, both physically and spiritually.
For three nights, with special permission granted by Botswana’s Department of Wildlife and National Parks, our group camped out in the wild at a waterhole called Domtshetshu Pan. The sense of freedom, space and wonderment was amazing!
Domtshetshu Pan was the site of one of my most memorable wildlife encounters ever, and I will tell you more about it in the next installment!

What better place to reconnect!
That is so true, Anne. We were created to be in nature, not isolate ourself from it in jungles made of concrete and steel.
Wat ‘n wonderlike ervaring en voorreg het jy nie hier gehad om tyd met mede gelowiges en die natuur te spandeer nie.
Ongelooflik mooi daar en die olifante was so naby aan julle om die mooiste foto’s te Kon neem. Pragtige foto’s ook van die skoenlappers, voëls en die natuur daar!
Dit was ongelooflike, Aletta. Mens kom so vinnig weer uit by dit wat regtig waar is wanneer jy jou in die natuur afsonder.
Fantasties
I’m on a blogging break but had to read this and say “God is good!” 😘
There certainly is no greater truth than that, Janet. God is good. Always.
