In our May outreach to the Zambezi Delta, we
flew 163 flights into 23 different villages. While the new irrigation pumps
project seems like the highlight, we also did 5 medevacs. One of them a 55 year old
man, Armando Joni. Emaciated and incapacitated for 2 weeks with a huge, rapidly
growing abscess on his liver. He is making a remarkable recovery and now staying
with his son near Marromeu while he recovers.
The village of Molicholo continues
to welcome the Bible teaching program very enthusiastically. Large numbers of
people continue to meet with each visit and engage in intelligent question
asking and learning. Pray this will continue.
In pain and
barely able to move for 2 weeks with a huge, rapidly growing abscess on his liver
With a
hastily constructed stretcher, friends carried Armando 25 minutes to the
helicopter.
At Marromeu
hospital, they drained over 2 litres of fluid out of the abscess. Within days
he was up and about. With anti-biotics Armando is well on his way to recovery.

treadle irrigation pump being put to use at Nensa.
Everyone
wants to have a go!
Time for
small group discussions at the village
of Molicholo. This place
is amazing! They stand out amongst other villages where we have worked.
