Arrived well

Dear friends,

how are you?

We greet you from summerly Africa !

Our friends here have given us a wonderful reception, got us from the airport and even brought us ready self cooked food for 5 meals... The Sunday service of our house church was great, the message was on salt & light! Let's by the Holy Spirit make a godly difference, wherever we are!

In Johannesburg we met with our regional leader and his wife. He said "the doors would be open" after that year for ministry in Zim providing the relationships would be good with the African brothers and sisters. On one hand it was a good meeting, we were on the other hand amazed that our version of the story was not asked at all. Please pray for wisdom, a forgiving heart and love in our hearts!

We've found our gardener Baba Lawrence, the dogs and the house in a relatively good way. Except a few minute things (such as flees from the cat of the previous inhabitant...)now we've put down powder everywhere and seem to win over the little suckers.

David has been enjoying pre-school for two days now and is having a lot of fun. Joshua made the flights and all the changes (e.g. from –5 to + 30° C ) very well. Praise the Lord!!!

Please pray for God's protection, there is another wave of break in going on...But we do not want to live in fear, but trust God and be used by him according to HIs will!

This E-mail we are sending from our friends' place, more once we'll get our own set up-

With Isaiah 55:1 " Come all who are thirsty, come to the waters, and you who have no money, come buy and eat!

God's Mathematics & mercy is so much higher than ours!!!

Your Martin & Silke + David + Joshua
