Thanks to all of you who prayed for our container to get here. It
arrived on Thursday afternoon (June 12) with the seal unbroken (passed thru
customs uninspected) and a team of 6 men who carried boxes to
whichever room we asked and to assemble beds and bookshelves. One
returned again the next day to assemble more bookshelves and remove
boxes and paper..... much to the consternation of the Tanzanians who
love boxes we've discovered and helped with the clear up process by
removing almost 100 of them......
For the first 50 boxes being delivered by the moving company team....
it was simple to see which room they should go into but after that it
became a blur and boxes were everywhere. 270 boxes later we were
overwhelmed with a sea of boxes and paper but happy that it was all
there. Ngome has never looked so small..... :)
Now, 12 days later, we have finally found my computer again and
feeling so blessed by our home feeling like home.
Thanks to all those who agonized with us and prayed with us for this
container that took so long to get here. Thanks to Jo for all her
help in unpacking my kitchen and making beds that first night!!
To all of you, Karibu anytime!
Life has been kind of hectic with Kenny, Justine's boyfriend arriving 2 days after our container and then a team from south africa of 10 people arriving for 2 days and my week long women's conference starting today..... All of these blessings I would not have given up for the world.... life is busy but exciting.
Kenny arrived with lots of different gifts from Canada that we can't get here .... it felt like Christmas.... we will try to get him to give you his opinion of things here in Arusha...
The South African team were part of the PE Vineyard who hosted us during our "champagne sorbet". They took the service at the Arusha Vineyard and helped hand out grain and shared a message with the masaai women with their guitar and then spoke thru an interpreter.
