Singida October 2012
 |
| We did a lot of this - waiting in line for fuel! For some reason there was no diesel in Singida for sale (there was only a little petrol). Each fuel station was either completely closed or had lines of traffic waiting to see if they would sell any fuel. Oh, by the way, the tanker 2 ahead of me was not delivering fuel, its tank was empty too! |

Marabou and the moon
These Marabou storks are huge birds and about 20 of them hand out at the Catholic Guest House where I was staying. Have a look at this link to find out more about them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marabou_Stork |
 |
| We traveled out to Nkalakala village to study with some of Samuel's family. As there was too many people to fit into the house we had our study sitting under a tree. They really appreciated the tracks we left with them |
 |
| Time for a Photo! |
 |
| People here LOVE to have their photo taken and when they are able to see the results strength away often hilarity follows. Here is the family gathered in front of their house. (Samuel/s mother is in the purple in the middle and Samuel and his brother are standing right behind her.) |

| Sunday after services at Malade. For those interested you can see Yohana 4:24 (John 4:24) and "roho na kweli", "spirit and truth". I think my Swahili is improving (a very little) |

Keith, I am impressed by your visit to Mererani Church. The photo's are very good and the baptizing was a time of rejoicing. The work is really going well with souls being saved on a regular basis. God bless you and Anne for your good work and sacrifice. Is the young lady Jamie's wife. She is very beautiful. Thank you brother for the report. It causes us in turlock to gain renewed courage and determination to work harder than ever. Clint preached for us on the Lord's day of the 12th. I took him back to the Bart station yesterday. He loves the work in Tanzania and plans to return in April. We certainly welcome him to our family in June. Glenda sends her love along with mine.
ReplyDeleteYour brother in Christ.
Richard
Thanks for your comments Richard. The young lady is Katie Burns - she is our daughter-in-law's best friend. She is staying her for 3 months as she volunteers at a local school. We are looking forward to seeing Clint in April.
DeleteThanks brother.
