Smuggling Mule
Yes, my luggage did all arrive. In fact, my two checked bags which I was looking for in Johannesburg were the 2nd and 3rd one out. Shortly after, the smaller one I also had to check in came around the corner. So, for this part the score was
Smuggling Mule & Hound of Heaven - 1
Lost Luggage & Nasty Customs Inquisitions - 0
Today I've included photos of the myriad of stuff that was packed, in the gallery. After viewing them myself, I'll have to resize them at a better setting. But you’ll get the idea.
Speaking of gallery, today I hope to start taking pictures of some of the people some of you have been waiting to see. Brenda and I took a few pictures and video on the way out to Arandis; the intent of which is to create a presentation of Namibia that she and Sylvia can use to help raise more funds for HPOM as they go out on each of their speaking circuits. So you'll be able to look for some of those soon.
This morning a few of the children are being evaluated to see exactly what grade level they should be in. Given their age and "natural" progression in the Arandis public school, they would be in 3rd & 4th grade. However, HPOM's concern is that they still lack the skills of they should have at that point and might be better off taking a step or two back, and going to the new Arandis Christian Academy, to get back on track.
Okay, I need to work on a computer before I get fired! Oh, for those of you who may not know and might want to, there is a 7 hour time difference between Namibia and the East Coast. The time you see on the posts is East Coast time. Just add 7 hours and that would have been the time I posted from here in Namibia. |

| What Matters |
As you let God's design be worked out in you, you will see its impact in
others and for generations. |
Sometimes it's not about your ability to do something, but your availability
to do it that is more important. |

| What Others Are Saying |
| I should be much more afraid of being mistaken and then finding out that Christianity is true than of being
mistaken in believing it to be true. (Pascal)
|
| We all want to get to heaven but nobody wants to die. (Unknown...still looking)

God hasn't given you the events of your life to hold in your own hands. He is allowing you to watch them
unfold in His. (Shannon Kubiak, "God Called a Girl ")
