We received a message from Zambia late last evening. Our first phase is nearly finished with only a few things with the bathhouse to finish, only the roof for the kitchen-laundry area, and the furniture for the home to go! A message from Mike follows (edited):
A man from our church in Kalomo owns a small auto parts shop. I went to his shop trying to buy the clutch part needed for our truck. He asked to go with me and help. He not only had the part, he installed it and wouldn't take any money for the labor (the part was only k45,000 -or $12 US). I went yesterday, hauled rocks, ran a light to the bath house, etc. Golden should build the trusses for the kitchen/laundry within the next week. It rained last night and looks like rain today. Not a good time to drive through the bush and collect rocks or sand. So I didn't go today.
Jo Anne took some more measurements yesterday. We have to make good use of the space within the home, and will price furniture next time we're in town. We know the bunk beds complete with mattresses, sheets, and blankets will cost approximately $200 each. And will eventually need 6 more for the first house (one for the "parent room"). God Bless, Mike

God continues to make our way in Silimbe. Continue to pray for His provision and protection there. Thank you.
