GoTeam 2007 Safely Back Home!


Following a two hour delay in London and a missed connection in Seattle, our GoTeam arrived in Portland on two seperate flights last night (9:20 & 9:50 pm). They are travel weary, but otherwise in good shape. We are thankful for their safe return and praising the Lord for the good work He has started in each one.
Reserve Sunday, September 23, at 6 PM,

Great couple of days in Livingstone, saw the sights, a couple of us are a bit under the weather but nothing major. We will be heading to London this evening. Thanks for all your prayers, keep praying for travel and for time zone adjustments as we return. God is so good.

We all danced!!!

As I write this we are pulling away from our lodge and waving goodbye to the World Vision staff. Yesterday we went to Simumpande and saw their amazing progress. We saw the cattle, goats, and donkeys that their partnership has provided. Part of the team also visited the borehole sites. In the evening we all danced as we sang and prayed and exchanged gifts. We are praising God for our time in Sinazongwe and for our WV partners in Zambia. Thank you to all who have been praying for our team, please continue to lift us up in prayer.
 
With love from all of us,
 
Jim

Celebrating our Partnership with Siabaswi










Wow what a day! In the morning we split up and saw a crocodile farm, rode bikes to eight different Siabaswi churches and others visited some borehole sites. We all met back up in the village for a great lunch and a meeting with the partnership committee. After that we had an amazing celebration!!! So Kinton danced again, along with Graig and others. The villagers loved it. We sang, we prayed, and we exchanged gifts. It was an amazing celebration. We were able to show the village a movie encompassing the last five years of partnership. It was a blessed day. All are well. We are praising God.
