Dear Family and Friends,
The Lord woke Josie early Sunday morning to drive the VW beetle over to the campus of SAU where a flea market had just begun and park it in front of the Village Market. Just before 8 am she walked back home. A short time later some phone calls were received re the little car, more than one from a very interested young man and his mother. By evening, the VW was sold - a miracle of blessing! We fly out of Atlanta Monday 6 am, on the Lord's business. We're tired but ready. May God keep you faithful while we are apart - Jesus is coming very soon!
I saw the Beetle up for sale, and made me a bit sad.
ReplyDeleteBut I believe it is all for the best.

ReplyDeleteIt's Wed morning in Addis Ababa and we are in transit (24 hours) having missed our connection to Johannesburg yesterday due to a last-minute detour on our way out of Chad. The airline put us up in a hotel here. It was interesting to see Addis. Much cooler here - altitude is approx 6,000 ft ASL, we are told. We were up at 5 AM, we are not going to miss this flight! Only one per day to Johannesburg.
The early morning birdsong in Bere (it's in the bush) is so beautiful.
Birds we have not seen or heard before. We know we are going to love it there once we get used to the heat! Sleeping at night is a challenge, cooler breeze only blows in around 2 am. We live in a thatched-roof, octagonal cottage with shower and sink. The outhouse is only 50 ft away. God bless, and thanks so much for your support and all your prayers. Til later . . .
