Greeting from the Congo
Everyone is healthy and doing great. We had a little bit of slow start due to the fact we were so tired from the trip. We are now working very hard and many things are getting done. Yesterday the generator was set in its new home and the brick walls are going up around it. Today the big job was getting water to house #2. We needed the water so we could use our gas powered pressure washer to clean the house. This was a big job since had to set a tank plumb it in. All the water has to be hand poured into the tank mounted ten feet above the house. We do have lots of help from the local MAF staff. The block enclosure is almost done around the generator. Other jobs like installing glass blocks in some rooms to allow light have been done also.
We have settled into our home in the MAF hanger with all the comforts of home. We have nice beds, flushing toilet, shower, and all the clean water we want to drink. We have had great food and no one is going hungry. The weather has been in the 80’s with only 1 heavy rain storm Monday night.
The locals are very friendly and always have a smile and a warm welcome. Working with the local staff is a real privilege as they work hard always willing to do anything to help out.
Thank you for your prayers as they are answered all the time as by our successes so far.
Serving our Lord,
Dave B, Brian, John, Keith, Doug and Dave J.
