Amazing!!

Amazing!!

I know that some folks regularly check this blog. (I'm grateful!) So
even though I can't write much right now I will say that we have a
team from CO here. There are only 4, but they have been doing an
Amazing job and keeping so busy. Mark, the mission pastor, has been
serving everyone and helping things to happen. As a former science
teacher he has done teachings on bees, taught the teachers how to use
microscopes, organized our science supplies, brought the message on
Sunday, is trying to deal with the bees in the tree in the courtyard
at the school, and doing our Bible lesson at Morning meeting this week
until he goes.

George is setting up a security system, running wire and all that is
entailed, as well as working on computers.

Verla has a sewing center set up in the Community Center. In the
mornings Chimwemwe Ladies come along with mothers and aunties from the
village. They are making different things, and for some it is the
first time to use a machine. In the afternoon, 5 of our girls are
learning to sew. She has over seen the cleaning and fixing and
setting up of the many machines that have been given, but that we
haven't been able to use until now.

And Sharlene has helped Verla get the machines going, worked with
George to network the computers in the office area, done lessons on
how to use computers with our teachers, and today was working on
designing a flyer about the road front to pass out to the truck
drivers and others to get more business.

So it has been a great and amazing time. They leave on Thursday and
we will all be sad about that. I'll write more later about other
interesting things that have been happening here.
