6 more days!

Brother Gentry only has six days left in Malawi and about 6,000 things he would like to get done before he leaves. Please lift him up in prayer as he begins to transition off the field and back to America. Brother Genry and Mrs. Gentry leave Malawi on June 27th, arriving into Louisville, Kentucky on June 28th.

I am begging for prayer regarding the container. Our container is one of 60,000 containers in Beira, Mozambique. I spoke with the shipping company today in Chicago and they said that everything on their end has been completed. At this point, the container is just waiting to be cleared by Mozambique customs. The shipping company said that the last 3 containers they shipped to Blantyre Malawi containing vehicles took between 4 and 6 weeks to arrive once they were in Beira. Our container arrived in Biera on June 6th. So it is not looking good in terms of it arriving before Brother Gentry has to leave. Did I mention he leaves in SIX days! We need a miracle! Please pray for a miracle! It is now winter in Malawi, and it is colder than normal. Thandie says the kids are cold.....and can you guess where the blankets are? Yes! On the container! Brother Gentry will attend a meeting about the container on Friday. Please pray that it gets released!

Other news: Some of the children and staff have winter colds, but for the most part everyone is healthy. Thandie met with the Social Welfare Department today to receive the new regulations for orphanages. She was pleased to report that we are already complying with the regulations and there are very few changes. They invited Good Samaritan to participate in the Day of the African Child Event that will take place on June 30th. Our children will give sometime of performance. The funeral was held today for little Worship. There are two visitors still in Malawi from the Indiana group. They were able to go to the funeral. The rest of the Indiana group left last Saturday, but had a popcorn party for the children before they left. The children loved the popcorn!
