Prayer requests!Ill be hiring a nurse and
maintenance staff for the clinic soon.
Pray for massive wisdom and
discernment for the right staff!
Since the clinic will be private,Ill need more funds to buy the
medicines and pay the salaries. Please
pray for God to move upon the hearts
of His givers.
My papers are still stuck in
Maputo. I need to go and sort them out
soon, but there are obstacles. Pray for
them to come through w/o bribes.
The chickens are doing well,
but well need lots of favor when itcomes to selling them. Please pray
that God would send me a farmer/
missionary who can help me w/ them!

When I learned last month that partnership with the government for
the clinic was impossible, I was confused as to how to proceed. So
naturally, I turned to Him in prayer. When He told
me to trust Him to provide for a privately funded
clinic, I smiled wryly in doubt... trying not to
laugh.
-- Right! I complained, Im suppose to buymedicines for this whole community. Hundreds of
people a day... thousands of people a month!
-- No, God chided, Imgoing to buy the
medicines for them. Sweet child, remember that I
love them more than you ever could. Icare for
them.... and Iwill do this, not you.
Oh! If I could have dug out my own tongue at that point I would have.
How long-suffering and patient He is with me! The great news is the
government is VERY happy to let us open privately and all the obstacles
that once were .... are no more. Oh! Praise Him!
Please pray for my faith to increase and for me to stand on this
promise. And ask God to open up the heavens and pour out all that we
need, according to His abundant riches in Christ!

Last december, a missionary
friend dropped in for the holidays.
While she was here, she told us
about a VERY large litter of puppies
she didnt know what to do with.
And naturally, we all asked for one!
The only hitch was wed have to
pick them up.
But when it came time to get them, the roads were impassible due to the
rain. After weeks of deliberation (and no decrease in rain!), she finally put
them on a train to the nearest city! But on the day I was to get them, even
THAT road was impassible! A dam had broken, raising the water level to
several feet above the road. What were we to do? The puppies were already
on the way!
Fortunately, a pastor in Beira stepped up to help. But during the
days it took for the flood to recede, one of the puppies (mine!) died.
Im told it was because he ate a chameleon. Oy Vey!
The Chicken Report.
The almost puppy.
Sweet Snapshots!

This puppy happily made her destination.
The first batch of chicks have
morphed from precious, little balls
of fluff to awkward, gangly, pre-
adolescent freaks. Id like to accuse
them of being cute... but lying is
wrong.
The worse part is that they
seriously stink! Im so glad I
decided against putting them in my
back yard! Ha! However, the best
part is the fact they are doing really, really well.
In fact, they are doing so well everyone is in awe. What with all the
unseasonable cold and constant monsoons... a lot more of them were
expected to die. Im just flat out humbled God has favored it so much!
Please continue to pray, however, as the second batch of chicks arrive
in two weeks and this batch will start being sold soon. Pray we can sell
them quickly without too much stress. Thanks!
Day old chicks are so cute...
