Bon Dia! It's around 8am, it's the middle of winter here now in Moz, everyone is complaining it's so cold.It's down to around 8 degrees at night and around 22 during the day. For me it's great, I can breathe again, and sleep fairly well when there isn't a cockerel standing almost on the end of my bed, and screetching his head off at
2.00 am instead of 6.00 am, which would be more reasonable!
.
We have had a really good last month here, our plans have now been completed for the medical centre, they look great, and we are hoping to start the build at the beginning of August, once we have all the foundation blocks made.
Up at the Centre in Maxixe, we have had a great response to the foundation course we have put on every Monday night. Over half the people enrolled on the course are getting 100 percent on there home work papers. They each have a new bible in the local shangaan or portugese. The same course is now being taught in our new church plants by the local leaders, and the people are loving it! It a great course, very simple, and packed with the Word of God.
.
Delfina`s shop is now open and bringing in some revenue. The ladies are busy learning all they can with the sewing project. They are busy cutting and sewing yards of brown paper, as they learn to sew.
.
We had a good response from the evening outdoor events that we held in Matacalane and Jocarne. The new churches are doing well, and will benefit hugely from the new course material which they are now being taught .
.
I'm back at the Orphanage now, busy preparing things for the trip which will be coming out at the beginning of August from the UK. We still have spaces available for anyone interested in coming out on the trip! I'm back in the UK during July, so you can contact me then: email peterdhouston@gmail.com

Thanks you for your support in loads of ways. If you are reading this and feel you would like to help us financially, or know someone who might, particularly with our work at the orphanage, where we are seeking to reach out to the poorest of the orphaned children in the area. The best way you can help us there is to fill out a regular monthly standing order.
.
It's a constant stretch for us to meet our monthly out-goings here just now, particulary as our pound has dropped in value. Please continue to pray for us.
Thank you for journeying with us on this exciting road!
