African Church Record

Hallo dear people,

Today we went to an African church: our Yao-translator invited us to come. We think we timed a record because we were home 5 to 12! An unheard of short church service, but a good one. We had a Malawian preaching (in English) so that was perfect for the team. They did need some portuguese translation so I (Frank) had to kick my language skills into gear and was asked to translate for the whole church. I am sure I have butchered almost any grammatical rule but the people understood the message so it got the job done. The singing was wonderful as always so we really enjoyed.

We have an interesting phenemenon going on in our team. Instead of doing health care with the team we have to start doing health care within the team. First Sandra had a short virus for a day, yesterday evening Lyn started Malaria and this afternoon we took jiggers out of Rachel S's foot. We hope that the rest will be spared from further illnesses.

We are still busy filling our program and for that we do need contacts and approval of authorities so it would be great if you could help us pray for that. We love you all, thanks for following us and praying for us.
