Africa Trip

A few weeks ago we were invited to go to Tanzania to help with a 'Pathfinder' camporee. By the sounds of things there may be 15,000 campers and counselors there from about 10 countries. Olive will be sharing about God's plan for life as symbolized in the Biblical sanctuary. When an evangelist from Zimbabwe heard about our trip - both my hubby and I plan to go - he asked if we would also spend some time in his country. We are willing. At this point we are seeking God's agenda. He is the One who is impressing and orchestrating the finances for this mission adventure. We also believe that God is leading to what I call 'stabilize' the property where we are presently living. It is exciting seeing how God is leading in the above projects as well as some others in the 'works'. We get to be channels for God's love to others and He gets the glory, honor and praise. Wow! What a wonderful God we serve.

Back to the Africa trip now. The Camporee is from August 21-30. September is a better month for being in Zimbabwe according to the man who has invited us to come there. We also are hoping to be able to visit Riverside Farm Institute, Zambia - where we spent six years in mission work - while we are on the African continent. We left part of our 'hearts' in Africa when we returned back to the USA in 1983.

It is getting late so I need to go for now. We spent most of today helping our friend get ready to move to another place so we are plenty ready for some much needed rest.
