update

Hi everyone,
Just after I got back to Espungabera after completing the import and registering of our Land Rover, Dawn came down with a very bad bout of Malaria. That coupled with very bad diarrhoea she became very weak. But praise the Lord we had the right test and the right medicine and she was cured quite quickly.
Then we did the 1st food distribution and then off to our yearly conference in Chimoio. What a blessing it was close this year. We had a wonderful time with all our colleagues and a great time of fellowship. It's always good to share with our co-workers and what the Lord is doing through them.
We then left Chimoio to go to Pietermaritzburg. After arriving I was supposed to go and fetch Leighton in Lesotho. He is a young man from New Zealand who is qualified in agriculture and spent 2 weeks in Lesotho checking out a project "farming God's way". So we are hoping to get the project started in our area of Mozambique.

We have been able to spend some time with family in Pietermaritzburg. It has been quite a hectic time. When we arrived in Pietermaritzburg we took the Land Rover to the radiator repair shop. Because when we were doing our first food distribution a stone went into the back of the radiator and with the fan spinning around the radiator got a few holes. I managed to solder two holes that I could see. Then it still continued to leak. So 5 table spoons of curry powder were added to radiator water and that held until we got back to Pietermaritzburg.
The radiator repair shop fixed it but 2 days later it leaked again. So tomorrow it goes for a second repair attempt. Lets pray that this time it works and is reliable.
