4th of July Celebration with the missionary community.

Girls having fun.

Games for the youth

There is a good group of youth here.

Tipper is always on the prowel for a lizard, snake, or rat.

Elijah volunteered to give a bible devotional/study at the next youth gathering. He and I worked to get it on paper and God blessed him.

A meeting of the mk youth at our house.

Whoa! Looks like we caught a rat! We chased this one all over and finally ended up in a bedroom where the dogs finally caught it.

Esther prepares some poles to hold up our mosquito nets.

The right way to cut onions without crying.

Ouch! Elijah!

No electricity again? No big deal. Just get out the candles.

The Hestons and Winters warned us that we should have a number of helps in Africa to help move the heavy couch in. Yipee! We did it.

Esther is loved by the little ones.

Elijah volunteered to help convert a girl bike to a guy bike.

Looks good, Elijah.

Elijah has another satisfied customer.

Elijah teaches little mk's how to play motorcross madness.

Elijah helping Grandma change her front shocks.

Into the nitty gritty.

Getting the land prepared for the container to come.

Three months after having packed it, the container arrives.

Where is it all going to go?

We thank God for enough hands to help.

Later some mk's helped us shift some things around.

Now with the container empty and dropped in the wrong spot we have to figure out how to push it into the right place. Yikes, I stopped this move as it would put a dent in the container.

We finally got it into place.

Now we had to dig, put a jack under it, jack it up and put rocks under it so it's off the ground.

We celebrate the move with our Mozambican workers.

After a long day it's time to relax together.

After we get things settled in a little... First thing, yep, Elijah is working on getting his motor-cycle together.

Ready to go!

Yum! We also get to treat ourselves to nachos. Wow, they really are good. Thank you Lord for this treat and we look forward to it again 3 years from now.

Esther finally has her keyboard. She's doing great with it and turning out some pretty melodies.

Sorry Melissa. The 220 to 110 volt transformer fried and we have to check out the washer which might have also burnt. It all checked out fine. We later figured that we had maxed out the transfmer. It seems that there are so many other details to stay on top of here. Our paid helper, Moniz, is also an evangelist and church leader here.

Esther's dolls gather quite a crowd.
