Thursday fnished rather late, so time for blog was missed. for Andy it was a day with the pastors and their wives looking at the book of Nehemiah to see what we can learn from his experience of working with God's people. There was a mix of didactic teaching and group discussion. In between the sessions we squeezed in short interviews with the pastors from SAP linked parishes. The last ones for the day weere being recorded as the evening came and the light was fading. We hope these will be a blessing and encouragement for the different SAP partners.

Meanwhile Grace snd Heather were sorting out the boxes of Byumba cards so that we can bring some back to the UK with us, and also meeting people who can help to provide us with baskets. We also talked with Verene, who leads the work with the widows andhas links with the Hannah Ministry, about how she might be able to help us process orders for both baskets and cards.


Here is a photo from our time around Vicky's grave on Wednesday with Bp Emmanuel and either side of him his children, Kelly and Calvin.

Today, Friday, has been another day of conference for pastors, wives and Andy. Also, Heather and Grace led a session specially for the ladies looking at how we can trust the Lord for his plan for our lives. They also spent some more time sorting through the boxes if cards and making plans for us o despatch a box of baskets to the UK on Monday, we hope!

Pastors and wives who attended the conference.
Tomorrow we are going out and about in the Land Rover to visit the SAP linked parish of Ngarama and a water-harvesting project in Hunga. Should be fun!
