Oswalds Bring Servant Mindset to ER Programs Meet David and Ramona Oswald, a wonderful "retired" couple from north Georgia using their golden years to invest into the lives of children.

This is David’s second trip to South Africa and Ramona’s first. David traveled the world through his previous career and is an all around handyman who has been helping ER and our partners. Ramona assists him and also helps at the Fish Hoek Dream Center. "David and Ramona embody servant-hearted leadership and model what it means to make a short-term investment with a lasting impact," said Africa Region Administrative Coordinator Anke Ferreira. "They serve wherever we have a need, including working on Peace of God Farm, assisting our partner ministry Living Hope, building and painting projects in Ocean View, and serving at the Dream Center where Ramona reads with the younger children. "Their willingness to serve with such flexibility and humility has been a blessing to us and to those they encounter. We are deeply grateful for the time they invested in South Africa." Special thanks to former Ecuador missionary Ty Stakes, who now runs the 7 Silos foundation, for connecting the Oswalds with ER! #TogetherWeCan #InspireTheFuture #extremeresponse
