Dear friends,
how are you?
We are doing well and just about weathering the cold :-), seems you in Europe are having the very opposite problem at the moment!
Apart from various cold we are well. David is keeping us busy :-) He decided suddenly to start walking three days ago and is very determined to bring to light everything out of the depths of our cub boards :-)
He's a delight and we praise God so much for this precious live that the Lord has entrusted into our hands for a while... He continued to be a very active & jolly chap-please pray that he will find the Lord early on in his life! We went to the Wenimbi Dam about 5 k's from here the other day with some children from the orphanage and David bonded very well with them as you can see on the attached picture.
Apart from looking after David, Silke has done & achieved very well at the Kwekwe Flower Show. With her friend Tracy she received three 1st Prices and one 3rd price!!! She did come back rather exhausted but very satisfied. Making new friends and also witnessing to the Ladies.
This week sees 4 church activities hosted at (our) the Lord's house : today we have the moms & tots, this Sunday we have our house church service here, Monday the Ladies Bible Study and Wednesday the Men's fellowship. We also have the pleasure of having our sole(non-retired)colleague staying with us and are involved with a Scripture Union Camp. So this weekend should not get to boring again :-)
Do please pray for strength and God's guidance through our lives & ministries here.
Continue please to pray for the N. family. The mother and one son will be moved by the end of the month. The other son and the grandmother have vacated the place already. Please pray for them as they now have to start again looking for jobs, places to live etc.
Please pray for the Scripture Union camp this weekend, our house church here has made it possible for 27 kids from the orphanage to attend it. Pray for the kids to have a great time & learn loads of valuable wisdom from our Lord! Martin will go out Sat. afternoon to teach a lesson and show a video.
God bless you all with John 15:13 our memory very from the last couple of lessons,
your Martin & Silke + David
