My flight from Zimbabwe was an hour late but the line to get through customs was non existent as all the other incoming flights had come through (much) earlier. MMM coordinator Jordan Banda had waited for me and off we went for Mponela, Thope Hotel and the rest of the team. An afternoon to relax, greet people, and repack getting ready for heading out into the field.
Monday is all about orientation. Welcomed by all 4 coordinators (north & central Malawi, Zambia, and Tanzania). An opening devotion from Acts 10:34-38 by Reverend Mwasakifwa. That this is God’s work that we’re doing as the hands, eyes, and feet of God in earth. That we go out and change lives and are changed by this experience knowing that what doesn’t change is God and God’s love.
Tom Logan (founder) reminded us that the goal for this year is 3500 wells. He also said that we have 4095 wells that they would like to build-that many villages are desperate for clean water. Then he said that as of yesterday only 1697 wells have been funded but we move forward in faith.
I’ll be working with Francine for this first three weeks. We will start working in the Dowa area (where I worked last year). Here we go!!
