JOURNEY TO SA

What you see on the truck is a block machine and a cement mixer to help assist the production of building the mission center here in Mozambique. This center will be used for pastor training, housing and various teams and meetings that are starting to take place much more frequent. Domingo and I had the other and privilege of being the cross border transport service (from South Africa) for this special equipent. After driving over 55 hours, being stuck at the border for 8 hours and then 3 days at customs waiting while all the paper work and import documents where issued. Domingo and I were more than ready to see are warm beds once again. Praise God we are back home safe and sound. Thanks for your prayers!

ALL GOOD!

I ARRIVED BACK WITH THE TRUCK SAFE AND SOUND! EVERYTHING WENT WELL, THANKS FOR YOUR PRAYERS.
WILL TRY TO GET PICS UP SOON! ARE INTERNET IS NOT DOING SO WELL, IF YOU LOOSE ME FOR A WEEKS OR TWO DON'T GET TO ALARMED. PEACE TILL NEXT TIME!

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!

Leaving for South Africa this morning with the ASAM truck to pick up supplies for the mission and also for my house!
So if you guys could keep me and the second driver Domingo in your prayers, it would be appreciated.

Blessings to you all!

SETTLER I AM

Now you guys can see what I've been up to with trying to get settled in the bush!

Wow ok look at that make shift of a kitchen.

Nice, when it's all said and done it actualy does quite well.

My poor tent took a beating while I was home in the states, so ya it defiantly needed a bit of work!

Well folks that would be the cleaned up and finish product!
Me house for the now!

BUSH SCHOOL ROOF - GETTER DONE

Been spending some time at the school helping to construct the new school roof! It is high time to get it done so i can go back to working on my house! ok well there is the woodshop roof as well that needs to get up! Praise the Lord!

The roofers kicking it way up high!

A few final touches, some paint and we will have a wonderful new looking school. Well ok maybe a bit of work around the doors and then nicccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

RATEX VISITS THE BUSH!

After realizing that there was an uninvited quest present in my very own kitchen. I began to ponder death thoughts and ways to exterminate this unwanted, ungodly thorn in the side type of creature. Making a long story short the Ratex pills that you spread behind the furniture proved very helpful indeed. It was no longer than a few days and this creature to ugly for words stumbled out from behind the fridge, looking bloated 3 times its size and running "well trying to run" like it had a few beers, couple shots, and maybe one or two rat size spiked punch glasses. It took hardly any effort to put the confused, bloated, sick lad to sleep! The friendly little dead guy was then strung up on the tent zipper of a fellow tent stayer as a nasty little prank. If you would like to hear more of that side of the story you will just have to go to Salena's sight by clicking on the title of this page (RATEX VISITS THE BUSH). Peace for now!

JORTOSH TRECKING IN THE BUSH

Care to watch a small part of our 45 minute hike into the bush to visit a local church on Sunday morning!

MORE TEAM JORTOSH

Thought I would show you guys more of the work the team did to my house, so that you can rejoice with all of us.

Working on the pluming in the bathroom!

Busy painting the walls

It is starting to look SWEET!

Now this is looking like a house, Ya man!

The team left on Monday and It seems so quiet around here. I am missing all the company! I have been taking some time to get settled back in to my surroundings since I came over with the team and we went right into ministry the day after we arrived. My tent needs some patching and the kitchen area needs some cleaning. I will send some pictures of that next time. To be honest it is so good to be back to the place I call home. Until next time be blessed!

TEAM HUMOR!

I thought you guys may love to laugh along with me. Having a little fun with Jortosh and volleyball. It seems to get funnier the more times you watch it. hahahah
