More Rains

Wow, just when you thought things were almost under controlÂ… they aren't.  A while back we reached the capacity for the in-home nursery (eight babies) and have started looking for a house to rent just for the nursery so we can have room to grow.  Houses are scarce in Mzuzu, so we still haven't found one after several weeks of looking.  Now it's been raining babies after not getting any new ones for almost 2 months.  On May 22nd, we got number 9, which everyone was glad about and we were able to fit him in without too much trouble. Two new cribs were ordered from the carpenter to make sure we have enough beds.  On Monday we got a call that twins were waiting at the Social Welfare office for us; they had traveled from about 80 miles south of here.  So we fit them in. This morning (Tuesday) at a family visit for one of the babies we were told of another set of twins that may be coming.  Then about 4 pm I got a call from the Social Welfare office in Mzimba, about 60 miles south of us, and guess what-  that right, they have a week old set of twins that need to come to us.  We'll fit them in.  Needless to say, there will be considerable reorganization, improvising, and overtime involved in accommodating all these needy infants, but then that's why we came.  Please pray for our wisdom and patience in dealing with this perturbation in our setup.

 

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.  2 Corinthians 9:8
