Friday Update

Dani and Martin got Bernadette's scooter working again and she rode on it at
the end of the day.

Libby and Nicki did the infant clinic this morning with Bernadette and loved
it.

The whole team met with pastor Texeira and 3 elders at church. We discussed
their problems and their help from Strand church to build a much larger
church. The pastor also invited us across to his house. We met his family
and had lunch there.
Strand are supporting them really well. We talked for a lomg time in 40
degrees heat. We feel a very strong connection with this church and we will
pray for our brothers and sisters in Mocuba.

After lunch we tried to buy a crate of coke bottles. The problem is they
won't sell you any if you don't bring a crate of empties. Three  ways of
getting a crate is to inherit one, to buy one from a truck on a country road
or to buy one in the market - a crate of empties! !
Long story short - we went home with cans instead of bottles.

For dinner we went to the only acceptable restaurant in Mocuba - lovely
chicken and also king prawns.

What a fantastic day.
We thank the Lord for our special relationship with pastor Texeira and his
congregation. We are so thankful for Bernadette's hospitality and how she
involves us.
We pray that the local congregation will complete their building project and
continue to build their congregation.
