We made it! We landed in Angola Saturday evening, tired but so excited to be here! After a multi-day van ride we arrived safely, with all of our luggage, at our friends' home in the city of Namibe. |

We met up with a bunch of our team in D.C. and made the rest of the trip together! It was nice to travel with friends, especially with the trip being so long. We're halfway through our quarantine, but on Thursday we'll be home free! |

After quarantine, we're just waiting on our vehicle to arrive! The expected date is July 28th. When it gets to Angola, we will fly to the capital to pick it up and drive it to the farm where we'll be living. |

Thank you all SO much for your prayers for our visas and safe travel, your encouragement, your donations to our vehicle and ministry, and all your outpourings of love for us. We really couldn't have made it here without you! We can't wait to get settled in our home and to update you all on that's happening here. We think of you all and pray for you often, let us know how we can pray more specifically! With love, The Benders |
