Running Up and Down

This week has been full of taking missionaries to immigration,

 Dr. appointments, and airport.  We were able visit a couple of projects

and did lots of financial paperwork.  Some challenges

with power outages so we ate out a few more times than usual.

  Because of last year's drought, the dams aren't producing much power.

  Some missionaries are without power from early morning

 till late at night.  Quite a challenge for keeping food from

 spoiling and for cooking.

  But it is amazing how resilient our missionaries are!  

Picked up missionaries arriving from Malawi.  Unfortunately we waited
 for 2 hours for one missionary to get through immigration.  He never made it and
 had to spend 2 days/nights in the airport jail, then had to fly back to Malawi.  

Loading up sisters and helping move them during transfers. 

Sisters Tuiaki (Tonga), Finn (Nigeria), and Mahe (Tonga).
 They are quite the characters.  Such fun personalities. 

Grandma loved the flowers on this tree.  

We got two long, steady, hard rains this week so our rainy season has officially started.
  These kids were so excited to gather some bugs that emerged from the ground.
  They fry them up and they said "They taste nice!"   We aren't convinced.

The Sisters next door did a heart attack on our front door.
 Sister Darkwa, (Ghana) and Sister Emezirinwanne (Nigeria) and
 Sister Olson ( Utah) did it.  Sister Olson was sick so didn't make the picture.
  We put Sister Darkwa on a plane to Lilongwe, Malawi.  

Visited Nyabombwe School to inspect the latrines and teacher's house that are finished
.  Hopefully now they will soon get two paid teachers to add to the head teacher
 to teach the 180 children there.  

Completed Nyabombwe 2-teacher house.  

The Nyabombwe garden.  Much of the garden died because their borehole
 stopped working for a while until they could get it repaired.  

Today was the Primary Program in the our ward. 
The 15-20 children did great with their songs and talks.
They were really cute.  Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven.
