We are asking for prayer as we go to Zambia and visit with many people in many areas of the country. We know that God already has a plan for us greater than the one we know. Pray for the people of Zambia and for their desire to grow in a relationship with our Jesus. It is that relationship that brings the blessings, healings, and hope each of us needs in our lives; Body, Mind, Soul, and Spirit. Let us also pray for each other that we all may be one in Him and with each other as brothers and sisters in Christ.
October 5th: Today we are in Newark, NJ (EWR) preparing for our flight to the continent of Africa. Will land in Togo (LFW – western side of Africa) to fuel up the plane at 11:50am on Oct. 6th. From there we will be flying to Ethiopia (ADD) and changing planes. We will then fly to Tanzania (DAR) arriving at 3:10am and will get to enjoy a 10 hour and 50 minute layover! Hahaha! But after that we will fly from there to land in Lusaka at 3:20pm on Tuesday the 7th. It will be 8:20am for all of you when we land in Lusaka (LUN). Zambia is 7 hours ahead of those of us in Wisconsin’s Central Time Zone.
On the 8th we will be visiting Dr. Kalembo’s New Kenyama church! We will also be visiting some others churches that day. I cannot wait to see the completed building and to meet many of the students there.
On the 9th we will be going to Mazabuka for the Women’s Conference that will be the 10th through the 12th of October.
On the 13th we will be going to Zimba (African Wesleyan University College) making one stop to visit Pastor Paul in Jembo where there is a church, school, medical clinic and more that I visited in 2023.
Daily Musings:
Bright and early in the 7th in Tanzania. We have been here since a little after 3:00am. We are strengthened by prayers but we have been up over 30 hours now with some dozing here and there. We have had some silly conversations when our brains were rebelling due to our need for sleep! Hahaha!🤣
We ate at a little restaurant this morning called “The Flying Pan.” Inexpensive and totally nummy breakfast.
On the 3rd: In Chicago, the Lord led us to two people! They were in need of some love and prayer. We were able to give both. Prayers went up for a man named Roderick and an elderly woman named Mary!
We are waiting for our boarding time to come in a few more hours – just watching for planes to land…
Morning of the 8th: we had breakfast here at the Best Western hotel here in Lusaka Zambia. We are awaiting our driver, Calvin, and he will take us to Dr Kalembo’s New Kenyama church that is completed in being built. I’ll put that picture next to the one from 2023 that shown above.
We slept 13 hours and I feel great! Jonathan thinks he will need another day or two. Thank you for your continued prayers! Here is a picture from the hotel window.
