We Are in Zambia!

Dear Family and friends of the Zambia 2007 team,

Thank you for your prayers and support! After a grueling 24 hour+ flight we arrived safely in Lusaka on Saturday. Unfortunately, our bags were not quite so timely and it took another 24 hours for our checked luggage to arrive. Everyone had a great attitude about it though, and we jumped into ministry. The place where we are staying is right on the campus of the University of Zambia. Everyone is healthy and we are even overcoming our jet lag! The teacher's conference, village outreach, and pastor's conference are in full swing. All are well attended and we will keep you updated with stories. One of the highlights of our visit so far is the night we stayed with Zambian families. We got to eat "shma" (pronounced "sheema") a Zambian staple made of corn maize, and we exprerienced warm Zambian hospitality. We will fill you in on more details as they come. Please keep praying for us - God is answering your requests by allowing us to already see positive results in our work here and keeping us in good health. We love you and we will post more info on here soon!
