Here We Go Again

Hi Everyone,

I have landed in Ndola safe and sound, but tired after the long flights. I'd forgotten how bright the skies are here. It hurts my eyes after all the rain and cloud in Sunshine Coast.
The car wouldn't start even though I followed Trevor's instructions... Seems the petrol thing got stuck with the dry dust....

AND then I drove off to Chiwala school to see Owen and steam poured from the bonnet. I pulled over and 20 men all clamoured to 'help' - one happened to be a mechanic. God is good and answers my prayers even at the end of the earth. A rat had made its home under the bonnet while I was away -indeed a nice comfortable home for it BUT it ate holes in the water hose hence the steam. All's well now, but it took some faith and effort to get the thing fixed, and then I wondered 'what next!?'
I spent a few hours at the school chatting with Owen and head out to the village tomorrow. I am looking forward to what God has in store for me.
Thank you so much to those of you who support me financially and pray for me. It feels a bit weird jumping into a completely different culture like this, but at least its not strange any more - just different.
I'll write more next time.
Be blessed sweet friends
Durelle
