Proverbs 25:25

As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country. (kjv)

Today I called Brother Gentry in Malawi, only to find him broken down in the rain. By the way, they don't have Triple A in Malawi! God's timing is is just awesome. He knew Brother Gentry could use good news from a far country. I was able to inform him that one of his supporting churches was donating 4 solar panel water heaters for the Children's Home. This is a need Brother Gentry has been praying about for a year. The water heaters that Good Samaritan is currently using are electric. The water supply is shut of periodically throughout the day by the government. When this happens, the water drains from the water heaters and has no way to refill. The water heaters then burn up. It is dangerous and costly. The new water heaters will also help reduce the electric bill! Praise the Lord for answering this prayer at just the right time!

The supporting church also sent extra money that will be used to finish building the bakery house that houses the ovens for the Children's Home. Another answered prayer!
