We said our goodbyes to Kruger du Preez and pastor Samuel Matunda this
morning. We left a whole stack of clothes and food behind for Samuel to use
in the community where it is most needed.
The drive back was uneventful. Both border posts were teeming with people.
We had a delay on entry into Malawi when the army border guards just kept
looking at us but wouldn't open the gate. Dani wouldn't hoot his horn. After
a long time a casually dressed man ambled up leisurely and opened the gate
for us. No uniform needed here.
Saying good bye to Dani was hard. In the two weeks he has become a good
friend and we will miss his laughter, stories, perspective and guidance. The
devotions sessions with him won't be forgotten. George led devotions this
morning and did a very nice job.
We recorded a video message of thanks for the Strand congregation which Dani
is hoping to play to them in late January.
We landed in Addis two hours ago and have stayed awake playing twenty
questions. Hopefully our flight is on time at 1:45.
We are all looking forward to seeing many of you at church tomorrow.
We are grateful to Ben for maintaining the blog during these two weeks. Well
done Ben.
Tomorrow we will add our last post to this blog. This will be final thoughts
from each of the travellers on their experience in Mozambique.
Heartfelt greetings from your mission team.
George, Nicki, Libby and Martin.
