April's Gifts & Njombe Wed July 13

April is pretty popular over there-she has received (four) 10ft stalks of sugar cane & a huge entire branch of banana bunches!! Both are so good & sweet but she has to share! The entire team has also received 2 roosters (So that is 2 TZ roosters vs 1 Sun AM/Shelby Cty Fair rooster) & some eggs. The team spent the day (Wed) in Njombe with the Bishop & Asst Bishop & enjoyed lunch together. The Bishop received the stitched wall hanging. He will offically be installed on 10/9 & the Prime Minister of TZ will be in attendance. Immanuel was invited to sent representatives to also celebrate if possible. Besides veternarian supplies-Pr Wallace & Rick also looked into more plumbing supplies in regards to the irrigation system. Thurs he will be in Masilu working on GPS work/plumbing & other supplies needs in regards to that system. Well drilling for Kidugala was discussed with the Bishops office & Seth from Step-By-Step, wells are only drilled from July-Dec it is possible Kidugala may get another well by Dec-more info later upon the team's return. The entire team visited the deaf school & was given an in-depth tour & they presented the school with the projector (they also visited Jacob & Martin). The "girls" purchased some more material to bring back. Communication the past 2 days has been difficult as TZ phone lines have been tied up so but contact was finally made today in a small window of time. It was 8pm when I spoke with them & they had just rolled in from Njombe-long day.
