Getting close!!!!

This morning the whole team went to the orphanage and were greeted by smiling, cheering children. The kids were delighted with the now famous “chicken skit” performed by Tim, Randy, Karen, Ryan and Mike. It will be hard to leave the children and especially the orphanage workers who have become dear friends.

Tim Reed inspected the latrine and two wells and some of the men made the trek to the well with multiple containers to fill with water—making a stop at the crocodile pen where two crocodiles are being grown for slaughter. Anyone for croc roping?

In the afternoon the men finished the shelves in the medical clinic and the women took inventory of all the medical supplies. We are seeing a lot of our tasks being completed and have felt the Lord’s leading and protection at every turn.


At the Wednesday night service Pastor Wesley spoke from I John on the love of God and we ended with a time of prayer. We prayed for our children, the ones who are sick with malaria and the ones away from the Lord feeling such a common bond of faith

Thank you for the informative update. I especially enjoyed taking that long walk with you back from the well.

Mike, I love hearing your voice and seeing your creative presentation of the mission. Hey Ryan, the Lord has had me praying specifically for you. Follow Him!

Love you all...

How wonderful to have drinking water from a covered well within walking distance of the orphanage.
Praying for the children there especially the sick ones. Your Sister in Christ from Galt,Ca. Beverly
