Brian left at 4:30am for South Africa yesterday. He, a colleague and 8 ABC students packed our white vw combi and were on their way. They travelled through Mozambique, Zimbabwe and then on to South Africa. They broke down in the combi six times and spent 20 hours in Mozambique! Their plan was to be in Johannesburg tonight. They only got to Messina at 6:45pm and had to be towed in. We are thankful for our friends in Polokwane at Christ Seminary who graciously put them up for the night. The VW is on its way to the mechanic. Lord willing, they'll start their way back on Sunday night. If you think of it, won't you pray for safe travel for them and also that the REZ Conference will impact their lives for God's glory.

Kwacha's here this weekend and we had just been talking about Brian's trip. Sorry to hear he had such a rough time!
Kwacha reaction: "getting stuck in Mozambique is like getting stuck in hell" =).
Yip! It's not the most delightful place:) Heard from Brian earlier this evening - they may be a day late, because they have had two flat tyres so far...my brother said that when the combi left them looked just like an African van with all the 'katundu' piled up on top! They were just missing some cages with chickens.
Oh and the conference was GREAT!!! Praise the Lord.
will pray for a safe trip home!
