Back in South Africa for 12 days

Just a quick word to let you know that we returned from Mozambique on Thursday and we will be here for 12 days preparing for the next team that we will be with.  We have been busy washing clothes, bedding, towels etc. and in a few days time we will be doing the shopping for the next team we will be with.  There is a team that arrived today from West Frankfurt and they will be heading into Moz on Monday.  Joseph and Gordon will lead this team.  We are also excited to say that with this team Doug and Debbie Crawford arrived and they are now joining Samaria Mission full time. 

We will be updating the blog with LOTS of photos (that is if the Internet will work right) and reporting about what the Lord did on the last two outreaches we were apart of.  We will also fill you in on the time with had with Mark's dad and uncle.  So just check back over the next few days for pictures.  Thank you for your continued prayers, support and encouragement. 

Here are a few prayer requests ...
- that we would be able to get a little rest during these 12 days home
- for our health as well as the rest of the mission staff - it is winter here and it is cold!  Lots of people around town have been sick.  One of our missionaries had the flu last week and we are praying for protection from illnesses for our family and the rest of the mission staff
- that we will be able to accomplish all that needs to be done for the next team
-for the West Frankfurt team as they head to Mozambique on Monday - pray that the hearts of the people will be open to the TRUTH
for Mark as he is studying for a Greek exam in the middle of all the mission responsibilities
