Dear Friend
Our hearts rejoice as we witness God's faithfulness in taking care of all our needs. A year or two ago we purchased 4.5 ha of irrigation property, but it was partly covered with dense intruder thorn bushes.
God recently provided for us the funds to hire an excavator to clear nearly 2.5 ha, and now the whole land is cleared except for a small section.
All our gardening efforts the past year was destroyed by the birds, a direct result from the intense drought that we experience. There are no food for them in the surrounding semi-desert area and our garden is a very attractive alternative. We realized the only solution would be to put the garden under net, but new net can be a costly expense.
One of the nearby grape farmers took down some netting and donated a big amount of secondhand net that we can use to put huge sections under net. We have just finished our first 70 square metres under net and are now busy preparing beds to plant in.
The past Sunday the Pofadder Choir (from the nearby town Pofadder) visited us and spent the day with us. We had a blessed time of fellowship, especially since two brothers from our previous mission also visited us. We could encourage our brothers and sisters from Pofadder to faithfully serve and trust God for all the difficulties that they are facing.
GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS!
