Home

Right now I'm sitting in my "gingerbread house" on the rapid 14 base in Livingstone, Zambia. The door is open, letting the cool breeze flow through the house and the setting sun is filling the sky with the most vibrant red, orange, and purple colors. I'm home and it feels amazing!

I arrived on saturday and have been unpacking, reorganizing, and settling back into life here at the base. I arrived later then in the past and right in the midst of our busy season. There's an expedition in, amt is going full speed, and lots of staff and volunteers are working hard in meeting the spiritual and physical needs of the rural villages.

I started teaching gps & navigation to the amt class today. The class runs for this week, which gives me time to get my truck ready for the villages. Next week starts the new ministry I'll be doing in the Mukuni kingdom of zambia. It's located right here in the southern province of zambia and an area I'm very familiar with. I've arranged for language lessons to start as I continue learning Tonga. Over the last 5 years I've been able to pick up on some basics but have a desire to become as fluent as I can over the next 17 months. I'll keep you all updated as this adventure continues. Blessings!
