donations

we took 300 reading glasses from the Lion's Club. We delivered them to remote areas and gave them to community leaders who were in need. It was wonderful. Perhaps you think it is such a small gift, however what price can we put on the gift of sight? They were so happy to be able to read once more....or in some cases, for the first time...

the generous gifts given often leave me overwhelmed! I have brought them back to Canada and they stand as a reminder of our treasured friendship! Thank you!

It has occurred to me that so often ministries publish reports of their activities or pass on information, and exclude those who have enabled them to minister and worked alongside them. I am guilty of this also.

All that I do in the Congo is supervised by Bethsaida Church and it’s leaders. In particular, our God given son, Rev. Raha Muzibao and his wife, Mapendo. They take me into their home and care for me, guide me, and assist me. I do nothing without their guidance and support. My husband and I feel very blessed to have such a son, who is a strong leader and a man of great integrity! He works tirelessly to benefit the people of Congo. We are not sure how he can do all that he does, but we are very proud of him and the whole family! 

Asante sana,  Son!!

Raha, Mapendo, Hilary, Christine, and Eunice.......we LOVE you!

Tunakupenda sana,

In memory of a special man......

He was sent to the hospital against his wishes......he said he just wanted to go home, that God was calling him.......he was treated for malaria, but he died because it was actually a stroke......heard this after leaving....:(

and then to Canada....

Had the privilege of walking to the far plane....through the wind and snowdrifts.....wearing sandals and a dress! The airline gave me a couple of the flight blankets, but the wind got the better of them! 

Brutal introduction to Canada!

with great sadness.....

in the distance you can see the last glimpse of my much loved Congo, as we fly eastward over Rwanda.....
