Praying friends,
I am sure that you are thinking that you have already received Pastor Joseph's prayer letter. I am sending it again because I feel that I left off some information about the church roofs. The reason they are able to afford the building is that they make the brick themselves from their soil. There is a cost for wood so much of the time the brick are not fired, but they become very hard. To lay the brick, mud is used which becomes very hard and holds well.But when the rains come, if there is no roof to protect the walls, the water softens and then washes away the dried mud, and the building comes down or is weakened beyond use.

are working.We went to one of the tea estate in Thyolo,a beautiful place,where
God works in the heart of every young lady and young man,as a result,most
of them made the decision to serve God as a Pastors and as a
missionaries they are younger yet,but we cannot denied that God is doing
a work in their hearts.Along the way we visited Chileka Airport.Most of them
were very happy to see a aeroplane and the airport for the first
time.Thanks to all who prayed,the Young Camp was a success,many made steps to
strengthen their walk with Lord.Please pray that we can see the Lord continue
to work in their hearts.
