[cid:image001.jpg@01CD2313.84A2E070] Finally, on Monday 16 April, we arrived at our home after spending the night at the Henderson’s house (thanks guys!!!). Elin continued to provide meals for us during the first days, as we and our friends from Parys tried to make a home of boxes and spider webs in our house again. The Hendersons were able to clean most rooms of the house before we arrived, but the two rooms in which we stored our stuff were locked… We looked at it this way: It could have been much worse!

A week later, our house is starting to look livable again and we can start to tackle the offices and school building. Hopefully we will be settled soon and able to start back into the work here.
We have been receiving many visits between unpack and cleaning from our Mwinika friends and were even able to do some visits ourselves (thanks to the quad bike! :)). It is great to see all the familiar faces again!!
We will soon write to tell you more about how the work here has progressed. Sufficient to say for now: there is a group of believers in April 2012, were there was still none a year ago… Praise Him!
