We bought these beautiful glasses at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden back in Cape Town in either 2013 or 2014. We decided that now, being in our new home, it was time to put them to use. We had had them packed away in a box with other glass breakable items for the past four or five years. The flower depicted on the glass is the King Protea, South Africa's national flower. Kirstenbosch is one of our favourite places to visit in Cape Town, and you can read about our last visit back in 2017 here.
Throughout West Africa, Europe, South Africa, the USA, and the South Atlantic Ocean. Our adventure continues as we seek God's will for our life after Mercy Ships.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?

He is no fool who gives
what he cannot keep to gain
that which he cannot lose.
