We are now rushing up to Des Moines, Iowa, to be with family, as Melissa brother, Kem, just passed on this morning.

The rest of this was written a few days ago.

Thank you for praying for us in our time of setting up in our Leavenworth home.  We are close to the end of major repairs and are so grateful  for those who came to help in various ways.   

What a treat to see the beautiful changing of the seasons while we are traveling to visit supporting churches.

People have asked us what it is like being back in the U.S. again.  There are so many contrasts to the  American and Mozambican culture that it is difficult to give a simple answer.  One aspect  that is so shockingly different is the easily accessible books and “knowledge”  resources here, including our public library system, Christrian radio and book stores...

The Makua however have been struggling to educate their rural populations since their civil war ended in 1992. Most of students do not have access to a library and computer resources are few.   Their lack of knowledge leaves them vulnerable to superstition.

Please pray that the knowledge of God would spread all over  northern  Mozambique through the Bible materials Daniel and others are preparing and teaching.

We pray that the church in the U.S. would boldly speak the Truth of the Gospel while there is still time to do so.

Hugs,

Daniel (913-240-0433)  & Melissa (913-240-0448)
