they turned the pump back on this week so i have drinking water. I saw people carrying 3 or 4 bidons or barrels to the pump that day. I have 2 guys who are getting my water now. *
so last friday i took a moto ride out to this field that was donated to the artisans in the community. it is purposed for their offices for all the artisans in Toffo; for meetings and classes; and for hopefully a center for computers. right now it is just a field with corn in it though that someones brother or whatnot asked to use while they figure out what to do. so they told me that they are looking to me for help. could anyone who has an extra moment on the computer email me some outline formats for building or grant proposal fundings§ we are looking for a patron to helping in construction. I am looking to start a needs assessment. also i dont know how this would work but if anyone has connections to companies that could donate good working computers give me a holler. sigh; i miss everyone::::
happy thanksgiving everyone. i am going to my friends house a couple hours away and we are killing a chicken and maybe making curry sauce and coconut veggies: not the same as holidays with the family but i take what i can get

ReplyDeleteHey Laura! I finally figured out the address for this site. Lo and behold it was on your facebook page the entire time! I can be such a dunce sometimes. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe best gift, ever, was your call. I still tell everyone that my friend from Africa called and remembered. You are amazing. :-D
I pray for you everyday! I can't wait to hear more about your adventures and hope that you remain diligent and free from illness.

Hi Laura,
ReplyDeleteI have wanted to get into your blog for awhile now. Finally, I have a minute here. Happy Christmas Eve!! Steve, Rachel and Seth are at the 4:00 service. I'm going to the 8:00 w Julia if she is off work by then. Anyway, Merry Christmas and we miss you! I haven't talked to your folks for awhile. I am hoping after the first of the year we can start small group again. You may have heard Kathy Porter is struggling with bone cancer in her face and is doing radiation and chemo. Not good!! My family is leaving for South Dakota on Monday for a few days to see my mom. Take care. I hope there is some way to celebrate Christmas where you are! (did the Baptist church pan out?)
