It may not be the BEST title for a blog, but like many good titles, it has multiple meanings. The unbelievably gorgeous sunset in the picture above is over Lake Bangeweulu, which translated into English means "where the water meets the sky." A wonderful blurring of the lines between earth and heaven, between the mundane and the sacred, in an explosion of light and color that only God Himself could orchestrate.
As the eight of us are preparing for this journey, we are already marvelling at the things that only God Himself could orchestrate -- bringing together a wide range of experiences and expertise with one common purpose, to serve the children of Samfya, Zambia as best we can, by training and encouraging their teachers and caregivers.
Our preparation also prompts a greater level of trust that God will meet our needs for our work. He is Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. He has provided each of us with dear friends and family whom we have invited to support us in various ways. Hopefully this blog will enable you to stay in closer contact. We will be able to post the occasional updates while we are in Samfya during the last 2 weeks of June. We covet your prayers as we get ready to go. Thanks for accompanying us on this exciting adventure!
Coming soon...meet the team!
