To all of you who support us in prayer, encouragement, and giving. Blessings of our Lord on your year!

It's difficult to capture all the people breaking up rocks with their small hammers, but this is how they make gravel for the roads etc. Labour intensive!

a very dear lady collected Crocs shoes and sent them to Congo. The gift was a great expression of love to the orphan children!!

One day, some visitors came from Mudaka to tell us that they were experiencing a serious drought. People were suffering.

Water was only available from a distant location. You can see the effort involved to obtain this basic necessity!

We went to Mudaka to assess the problem.

For sure, the village was in very desperate condition. This is the village where we have the MB Chicken farm as well.

Our missionaries Ron & Elaine had already notified us that the farm would benefit from a direct water supply.

We thought perhaps we could meet both needs? A team went out with an engineer to do a survey and give us an estimate for the work.

It has been a laborious negotiation, but we have been able to approve the project!

It should be underway as you read this.

Because of your partnership, these people will have water! 

When we met with the chief and some of the leaders, we were told that there was a man who planned to do this project, but he had died the week before. They said they were completely without hope! And then God heard their prayers and answered! There was great rejoicing, I can tell you!

Great report from our micro-finance post.......all loans are being repaid on schedule!
That can sometimes be an issue, but these ladies are remaining faithful to repay. They will then qualify for an increased loan by January. It builds their business gradually.

The report from the orphans and widows in Goma, is that 2 of them are quite sick. Please pray!

Our missionaries Ron & Elaine did a great presentation in the school in Beausejour. Bringing D.R. Congo to the students to encourage global awareness.

If your church, prayer group, or community would like to hear the stories behind the pictures, hear more of our experiences, or have a report of our activities in the last 4 months, please contact us and we would be happy to meet you.....
