Here is a picture of Denis, inside the water tank cleaning it out, Joseph, the "Head-boy" on the left and Maureen on the right. They're all form 1 kids (freshmen) Good kids.

Also, here is a picture of what I saw the other day while hiking home on the dirt rode. They were just hangin out and eatin grass. We were supposed to start our avocodo business this week but T.I.A. (This Is Africa), so we haven't started yet and we're praying that the Lord would give us favor and allow things to get going on the other end. As soon as we're off, you'll see pics and read reports.

The landlord's decided to get electricity! This is super exciting because we won't be using gas from the lanterns and the kids will have sufficient light to see for studying. It is also a bit worrysome because it means rent will go up and we don't have any money for it! Hakuna matata (no worries) though. I'm getting used to really relying on the Lord with finances. I don't have any cool pics yet about the electricity but maybe I will on Wednesday. Speakin of cool pics check these out of Maggs.

About three weeks ago Maggie was in a motorcylce accident in Burma where she was thrown and evidently "flipped" through the air into some brush and caught a nasty bamboo stalk to the face. She never cried though. I'm proud of her! Way to go babe! About an inch up and to the left would have left her without an eye. It was a scary deal but it reminds me of a couple of things about the Lord. 1) He does not promise us physcial safety, 2) Rather He does promise safety from what's most dangerous, spiritual enslavement and spiritual death. And 3) That He is merciful at times even in physical danger. It could have been her eye.

He is good to us. She had 37 stitches which have been removed. Now she's in the "scare prevention" stage and it seems to be healing up really well. Please pray for healing for her face and that she would continue to do the Lord's work there in Burma and Thailand.

That's all for now! I love you guys!
