Hello all

this is lenelle, yes we do have internet right now but you never know what will happen to it.
we have been busy with starting two new Bible clubs in Chawuwa and in Nanganga. we have decided to change our layout for the new centers becuase it hasnt been working out with trying to get the leaders and gardians to be there every day. we decided to do all the games and activities ourselves and encourage the leaders and gardians to show up every meeting. Before, we were thinking about showing them how we were planning on it all running and then they follow suit. but it hasnt worked out so we are now thinking that if we tell all the Bible stories and show them all the games we can think up of, then when we leave they will be able to pass on the stories and games to their friends and family. I think it works out better this way seeing as it would be thier decision to start an official Bible club instead of us telling them they have to start one, and they will have all the stories and games already so it will be easier for them to start it on their own. We have basically changed it in two of the old centers as well- Livuadzi and Msumphi. Plus with transportation not always available we have decided this was the best way to make an impact on thier lives.

I hope everyone is doing well! I cant believe there is only two more weeks before we head back home. there is so much that needs to be done and not enought time to get it all done.

Katie, Ruth Ann, and Caroline were planning on donating thier blood here at the hospital. starting friday morning, we plan on leaving Nkhoma and visiting up north at Selema, and True Friends. True Friends is an orphan care project where they have started a Bible Club there and we were told to go see it. We also plan on stopping at the lake on our way back from True Friends. We plan on arriving back in Nkhoma on monday afternoon.

We also have health assesments planned for the different centers that we have started bible clubs at. We plan on getting all the health info for the coordinators so they can record it in their files. We also plan on getting all the names of the orphans to see update the coordinators' information of them all.

well this is all for now, I have run out of words to say.

I hope all are well, and I hope to see most of you all in two weeks.

God Bless,
Lenelle
