Today we met with the mission partners that FM supports in Zambia. We met with a hospital administrator from Chitololoki Mission in the NW Province. They have 4 hospitals that treat over 120,000 out-patients and 25,000 in-patients. Then we met with Baptist Mission who have 60 missionaries in the area. Their goal is to plant 10,000 churches (1 per 500 people). Last we visited Serving In Mission (SIM) who does general mission, training, translators, teachers and they have 50 missionaries in the country. The handbag JoAnne is holding is hand made by Esther who makes these out of recycled plastic grocery bags. She also does the cooking and cleaning at the guest house we stayed at on the Chilongolo Base.
On the way home we stopped by a small market as you can see in the pictures.
We are traveling tonight to South Africa and then on to Gaborone tomorrow.
Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Eph. 6:10
