Beginnings

Bruce and Brundee are with David now across town at the shop doing inventory and making plans to go and retrieve a rollover to fix it. Bruce will fly to Beira on Monday and drive overland to bring the truck down. Sometime next week we'll drive to South Africa to get parts and any needed tools. So the work will begin. Pray that people will slow down and have less accidents. Most of the missionaries that die here are from driving accidents. We have met some wonderful people here. As we come in many of them are leaving for other places to continue their work. We are glad for meeting their families and the brief time we spent together. The house we stay in is in a nicer area. I wish you could see the yard. It's semi tropical along the coast and there are lichi trees with berry like fruit, sweet tart tasting with a large pit. There are mango trees in our yard and everywhere here. Some have a very smallish fruit. We have pomegranate not yet ripe and tangerines and lemons green also of course the coconut palms loaded. It is a spacious grounds complete with security guard in morning and at night. Just about the time the neighbors cranked up for a party Friday night God put on a little noise and light show of his own a really nice thunder and lightening show. We slept soundly through the pouring rain. We are missing you at home but glad for the challenges of the work ahead… Will write again and are working on a few pictures. LOVE LOVE LOVE to each one of the family!!
