Dan & Julie,
It's a great pleasure for me to take advantage of this opportunity to greet you in the name of our saviour Jesus. (Boy do I have something to learn from her!) How are you and your family? I and my family are very well by God's grace. I am doing very well in school by God's grace as well as my church. We had a nice conference in our church. It was very beautiful. Many people accepted Jesus Christ as their saviour. (She spoke about a conference in her last letter. Either there was another conference or she was really moved by the one she attended.) I was happy to see that. We have beautiful vegetables. We grow corn. Do you grow corn in your country? (Yes my dear, corn is one of my favorites! Unfortunately it usually comes out of a can!) I have a sheep and it has two baby sheep. I love them very much. Pray for me, for my spiritual life and I will pray for you and your family. I hope God bless you all.

Chronicles of our family as we researched adoption and our eyes were open to the needs of the children in Africa.
Wow, what a heary she has! I love to hear that she is excited about people being saved. Today was letter day for me too! I received 2 from Elahi. I learned for the first time for sure that his family is Muslim (I had assumed, but wasn't sure), but now I know specifically to pray for that. It made me so happy though to read about all the Bible stories he has learned and verses he has memorized. I know God is working on his heart! Thanks for sharing this letter. Nanese sounds so very sweet.
