I received a message from Mike in Zambia early this morning, please keep them in your prayers:
Pray for us,
Last night at 1:45pm someone was stealing our Landcruiser. I ran outside as soon as I could get the doors unlocked. They got the Landcruiser started and busted through the gate. Linda told me to go to the police, so we did. We waited an hour before anyone could go with us. The police supposedly called the boarder crossings and check points. We rode to Livingstone to see if we could pick up the trail. I believe I found our tire prints on the dirt paths that bypass the Livingstone weigh bridge/check point.
No one was injured and nothing else has been disturbed. We are praying as we have done before....

In Zambia, most of the police don't have vehicles. So when something like this happens, you have to go down to the police station and pick-up an officer so you can file a report. This doesn't make for the most timely pursuit of a theif, but I guess it is better than nothing.
The challenges are plentiful enough working in a country like Zambi, without having to deal with mishaps like this. Please lift up the Jones' in your prayers.
Blessings, -Scott
