Season's Greetings

Let me take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a most wonderful and prosperous New Year.

I want to say a very big thank you to all those who have prayed for us and supported us this past year and also to those who have pledged to continue supporting us in the coming year.

May God bless each and every one of you.

Camping

Here are some pictures of our time on the farm. This is real bush camping!

This was our 'bathing room'

Behind this anthill was the 'toilet'

Some times I felt like Pigpen from the peanuts comics because these tiny flies would swarm all over us. 

Road

On our trip to Mpika we also managed to start clearing a road. It is quite a bit of work cutting trees and clearing the land but we were able to clear a good distance. The land is very sandy and it will take driving up and down the road a few times in order to compact it.

Trees

I apologize for the previous post "october" being posted late. It was supposed to have been posted two weeks ago.... Not sure what happened.... Sorry about that.

We travelled to Mpika. It took two trips to take all the trees. We managed to plant them all and we pray that they grow well.

October

October was a very hot but quiet month.

Mercy was writing her exams. Thank you so much to all those who prayed for her.

I did not travel in October because Mercy was writing exams. I did however spend some time helping one of the boys from Grace with his reading.

I hope to go to Mpika this month to plant the trees. It is the beginning of the rain season and the best time.

 Akayla is also doing well.
