Guyana Gaff

Wow—Are you an ornithologist?

Just the other day we spotted a Great Black Hawk, several Snail Kites and some swallows chasing about a thousand bugs in what looked like an aerial dog fight—all during our time on the veranda.

Still no phone and our voltage is 80 volts at night and 90 during the day so we limp along trying to make do while we get up to speed. We have to run a generator to do the laundry. Please pray for the new electrical lines to be installed in this community by next month as they are scheduled to do.

A few days ago one of our governmental ministers was assassinated. He seemed to be a good man but we do have our troubles down here. Politics here gets kind of dirty before the elections especially.

On a good note, we went back in to Canje Sunday to visit some of our former church folks. What a blessing it was to see people carrying on for the Lord in the face of adversity. More on that later. Gotta run as we say in Guyana, no no, I mean in the States. Bye.
