We are nearing completion of the 4th home at the project that will give us the capacity to serve 48 children if need be. We are considering reducing the number of children in each home to 8 versus the 12 we have planned for. This will require additional homes should we make this change, and still build out to host 72 children. We will consider the demand over the next 12 months and then adjust accordingly in 2010.
More to come later on our plans for 2009. An update from Mike Jones in Zambia follows:

Hey Scott,
Another group coming this year would be great. We are thinking of being in the States this November and December.
The children love to get into whatever I'm doing.

Act 5:41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
2Th 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
2Th 1:6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
Sheri thinks a 4th quarter group to Congo would be great.
Zambia has a shortage of mealimeal. I got 5 of these bags in Lusaka, 2 at a time.
Sheri is playing blocks while teaching. She will be in the States in a few weeks, spending a couple of weeks in Zambia before departing Africa.
Sheri will help with Samantha and the chemo treatments, and sharing about the ministry for several months while in the states.
God Bless, Mike

Thanks, and be blessed!
