March 10, 2011

I woke up on Monday morning feeling like I had the flu. Before the day was over my wife was convinced it was malaria. By Tuesday morning I was convinced as well. Sure enough after testing it is confirmed. The doc gave me medicine and the worst was yet to come. Been sleeping almost solid […]

A typical African day of waiting in line to pay the electric bill. :-)

March 1, 2011

It really is a typical situation…going to pay the power bill each month. It is ALWAYS an adventure. 🙂 Line (queue) #1, takes me 45 minutes to get to the window. The man takes the information and then has the computer spit out your bill. But he cannot give it to you as the printer […]

Zambia update

February 27, 2011

We left on a 21 hour trip to Zambia on Monday last week. After a grueling trip with 8 guys in a vehicle we arrived in the bush outside of Kalalushi, Zambia about 7PM on Tuesday night. The spirit of the preachers and the men in training was certainly contagious. They were a great group […]

Well, thank you for praying with us about the village outreach this weekend. Our last night was tonight and the Lord’s hand was certainly evident!

Makobo Village Meeting- Night #2

February 5, 2011

We had another great night! The weather was perfect, the crowd grew over last night. I lost count at 75 tonight, not sure how many were there. You could sense people were really intent on listening as well. Much of that may be due to the service being in Tswana. Muzola gave his testimony tonight […]

On the Streets and in the Villages of Botswana

January 26, 2011

What a day again! We started with a trip to 2 villages. Met with a chief to ask permission to work in the village and conduct a Bible study. He was very intent…and asked if he could come. The next village allowed us to meet with a man that may open doors to others for […]
