We passed back by the cabin near Boone for a few days to do our wash, work on taxes, and prepare for the next travel tour. The weather was beautiful and the flowers are starting to pop up here and there around the cabin. But a highlight of this time was meeting with former missionary Nathan Glancy in Boone. Nathan is returning to Mozambique to be the country director for Samaritans Purse and was in Boone for training (where their headquarters is located). You might remember that Nathan left the field with his family due to health issues right after we first arrived in 2007. He has fully recovered, praise God, has completed advanced education, and is a perfect fit for this job in Mozambique although it is sad that OMS has lost him. He already knows the culture, the language, and the lay-out of the land so to speak. We sat in a small diner in Boone for dinner and talked and talked, closing down the place as we caught up on what God has been doing. It was a special time that passed way too quickly. We had the privilege of carrying on the work that Nathan had started in Mozambique, benefiting from his hard work and dedication. I don't know how to explain it, we could just sit down and speak the same language. I think the waiter got a little frustrated because we were too busy talking to look at the menu.
God always has a plan and can be trusted.

"Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior…" – Isaiah 43:1-3
