Page 3 of 4 I had little to worry about for God had brought together just the right
people. We saw a diesel mechanic become a fine plumber, a sales and
technical fellow become a fine electrician, a Reverend become among
other things a fine cabinetmaker, grandmothers become jack of all
trades, young ladies who had never picked up a hammer become proficient
in driving in hundreds of nails without hitting a finger and so it goes
on and on until the team could finally walk away from the site knowing
that every task set to be done was done - plus some more. How
wonderfully God blesses when people make themselves available to His
call on their life.

We played soccer, sang, laughed and cried with the children. We ate
African food, some visited local hospitals and schools while others
taught Zambian women how to knit. We preached in a couple of churches
with the help of an interpreter and experienced a great deal more. One
of the most rewarding times experienced there was to sit and listen to
the orphan children sing each night after dinner, or supper as they
call it. We shall never attain the simple beauty or quality of their
singing in the western world. Many of the words we could not
understand, but one thing we did understand was the wonderful
child-like faith that came from the lives of these wretchedly poor
Zambian children as they sang to us each night.
