passport stolen + lockdown || South Africa

Hey guys!

I hope you are doing well and staying safe. Every time I look at the news, things seem to be getting crazier and crazier. Despite all the crazy, I have seen kindness and compassion shining through people. I’ve definitely seen some stressed no-so-kind people as well. However, most people seem to be walking in love towards one another, which is beautiful to see in such a dark time.

Speaking of crazy, last month in South Africa was freaking hectic. Our place was broken into, my passport was stolen, had to leave two weeks early because of the looming lockdown, and almost wasn’t let onto my flight. That’s just a brief summary of what actually went down. In fact, there are a lot of details I left out in this video due to the sake of time and privacy.

However, I am not sharing this video to make people feel fear or chaos. Rather, I hope when you watch this, you find hope. That even in the crazy times, you can rely on the steadfastness of God. I am grateful that he brought me safely home.

I am so grateful for all the people that it took to get me back. From the Uber driver taking us to the airport, to the flight stewardess who was so kind, these people were truly a blessing in my life. Without these people risking their lives by doing their jobs, I would not have been able to make it home.

Thank you for watching.

Stay safe and healthy. Blessings,

Catherine H. Fisher
