    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!

    2/2

    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...
