Sorry about the title, guys! I know you'll hate it. But I wanted to post about some wonderful young people who are trying to make a difference here. There is a local orphanage, run by a young Mozambican man who is married to an American, and some of the missionary teens periodically try to do things to support them. Last week, they had a car wash/oil change and asked all the expats to come by and donate in exchange for services. I couldn't make it to the location, so they came to my house and whipped out their vacuum cleaner, buckets and sponges, and cleaned up our car in a jif. I realized, as I watched, that Benjamin doesn't know what a vacuum cleaner is! He hasn't seen one since he was less than a year old.
Anyway, these "fine young people" (really, they are!) did a great job and raised some money to donate to the orphanage. These same folks lead the worship at the English Fellowship every other Sunday night with overheads, keyboards, drums, guitar, piano and singing, and we feel greatly priviledged to benefit from their talent. You have no idea how much professionaly-done worship can minister to a tired missionary!
So, thanks guys! And yes, there in the front row is Ian, the young man who was airlifted out near death with malaria just a couple of months ago. We are all glad to see him back and looking great (no matter how dirty he is). Praise God! - Cami
