Yesterday we paid a visit to Simakakata with your gift of seed and fertilizer! We brought along a few of our sponsored secondary students so they could join in and witness the sharing from the Canadians–actually the sharing from God!
Your generosity was extremely overwhelming and was received with much gratitude. 
The photos show the members of this mostly blind community kneeling before God in prayer–extreme gratitude. They will be able to eat maize next March or April. Praise God! We are rather sheltered from world news here, but the occasional peak at Yahoo.com informs us that world economic instability is headline news. Nonetheless, God will provide and it is good to share no matter how much we have. Thank you for sharing.

Sometimes the showers are heavy downpours with magnificent thunder and lightning displays. Monday we had 38 mm here, while at the farm it was over 50 mm. Today there are light sporadic showers. At the moment Richard is out at Katungu with the DYNA that has windshield wiper problems. I'm catching up on spreadsheets and computer stuff and preparing for this evening's farewell party for Secondary Students. It would be a bonus if ZESCO keeps the power on for at least a few more hours!

Sue, the tears stream as I look at the pictures and read your words. You are so fortunate to be there, doing important work, especially while much of the world frets over the unimportant. God is good; He will provide. May He give us thankful hearts that are willing to share. Love, Marti
May we develop such thankful hearts who depend on God for our "daily bread". We just have no idea, do we ???
