I think you did an amazing job on explaining the situation in S.A. from the joy of the boys to the frustrations with the adults. It was accurate as it was exactly how I felt when I was there for 5 weeks. It will take a team of individuals to sustain the necessary energy and commitment to help these children. Sign me up!
I also enjoyed hearing about the other aspects of Gift of Joy. I know first hand how awesome your Dream Builders course is. I want to be able to finish this course as it really got me thinking on a whole new level and bottom line, I believe preparation for the flood. So thank you for inviting me in on your first presentation.
I can't wait to have you home. I wish you were bringing 11 boys with you :0) However, to have you and your family "full-time" as a model for demonstrating living a faith filled life. What a blessing. I am so proud of you McGee Family. You will never know what a gift you gave to Mary and I when we traveled to see you for 5 weeks. Anyone reading this should know......you're in for a true interaction with the Lord when you are working with this family. Sign me up....For I am officially a Kingdom Girl! Whooo Hooooo
I love you guys. See you in a month.

Wow -
We're so excited to see what God has planned for the next season in JR & Anita's life! After hearing JR's heart on the matter of moving back to the U.S. and running the ministry from here, I believe he has heard from God and this will be a great move for them and for the ministry.

Blessed New Year 2008! Your latest news to shift even though "a bit surprise" to me, but I firmly believe you have made up your mind according to Kingdom's purpose! Remember the 1998 flood in China? GOJ birthed in that catastrophic Crisis and therefore became a channel of blessing to thousand upon thousands of kids' lives all over China.
Abraham was called by God to become a channel of blessings to nations too! (Gen 12:2-3) I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and YOU WILL BE A BLESSING! I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curse you I will curse; AND ALL PEOPLES ON EARTH WILL BE BLESSED THROUGH YOU!
JR & Anita : GO WITH THIS ASSURANCE TO BLESS THE KIDS THAT REALLY & URGENTLY NEED GOD! YOU ARE GOD'S CHANNEL OF BLESSINGS TO THEM!
We are 100% with you!

Having seen first hand the work that you are doing in South Africa, I can truly say that you guys are doing an amazing job. You are truly making a difference in the lives of the boys that are with you, and that was so evident in boys like Camwrin and Jawhan.
I know that God is leading you to build a strong base in the US, from there you will continue to reach out to the boys in SA and China. God is doing something powerful and it is exciting to see how He unfolds this next chapter in your lives.
I'm with you guys all the way.

We are happy to hear of your decision to return to Centralia to work from there. JR and Anita it has been a privalege for our family to be able to visit GOJ operations in China and to be in partnership with what you are doing in S.A.
We believe in you both and in what you are doing. We believe that you are in the will of God and can see that you will be able to build a base of operations so that you can make an impact in your own hometown as well as develop a strong team that can launch out into the nations.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you as you take this next step.
