Our last few days


Last night was the first time I failed to do my daily blog!  We came in late from a full schedule and after eating I flopped into bed.  It was a special day out again in freezing and slippery conditions.  The morning was taken up with delivering some more Christmas presents to widows in the town. Vilma is now in very poor health and ready to meet her Saviour - we pray that God's will be done.  We also met for the first time Ana, who is paralized and has  recently been added to the program - she was in mourning for her sister and a friend and was really distressed.  After a prayer it was good to see a peace enter her heart.   We also called in with a little fruit and sweets for my previous neighbour, Buna and delivered Christmas boxes to 2 former orphans now being cared for by his daughter and Pastor son-in-law.

Then it was back to Ana and Lavi (see report from our first day here) with a further supply of wood and a gift box for the imminent arrival of their baby.  We give thanks for their metal room heater made  by the old gentleman we visited previously in Apple Way.  Jackie had also delivered them a Christmas food parcel the previous day.  They were giving thanks to the Lord.

Without the weight of a truck full of wood from Jackie's own home and her experienced driving we may not have made it to some of our destinations! Every day we pray protection over ourselves and that He will go before us.
