Sorry for my lack of posting the last 2 weeks or so. I have been buried in so many things, but need to get you all an update. From our team in Zambia:
Hey Scott,
I should have more pictures tomorrow. I'll try again to haul rocks. I made a mistake on the number of children I communicated to you last week. We now have 11, unless Jo Anne got more since Friday. The 2nd house is now usable, lacking ceiling in 1 room. I need a few more pieces of timber, paint, curtains up, the furniture, and solar lighting and we'll be finished. Jo Anne already has the curtains made, but not rods. As far as the furniture, Golden and a carpenter in Livingstone are building.
The kitchen/laundry is usable now. They are already cooking under this shelter. The sinks are functional, but the plumbing has to be done, and will be when the wall is finished. Trenches for pipes are already dug. Golden should have at least one pantry's door installed, providing a secure space for storing things like food.
Linda and I will be praying for you and the funding for these projects. The project in Kasama we will start in September.
God Bless, from Mike
