HUGE answer to prayer!!! Last month we asked you to pray for God to send the right person to our ministry. We were looking to hire an older local pastor who can work with Mike in ministering to the local churches. The person who was previously helping Mike with this has moved on from Hope Africa at the end of his term (December 2015) and we now have found someone amazing to replace him.

We are very excited to be able to introduce you to Bishop Nyanga. He is a local pastor that we worked with a lot in 2015 and have a strong relationship with. We will give more information about him soon.

- The boys are back into the school daily grind of homeschooling (after the holidays) and things are going well.
- The boys enjoy playing soccer on Friday afternoons in a little kid's league near our house. Vincent is rather fierce and Raphael is more "calculated" & tries to do fancy moves.
- We have been enjoying our first actual ever garden. It's a lot more work and a lot harder than one would think!!! The soil here is well... sandy. And the wind is a big problem, never mind the snails!
- I [Marie-Eve] broken my toe at the gym by dropping a whooping 20 kilo weight plate on it. Not my brightest moment ever. he he. I guess I didn't want to have to do "leg day".
- Mike has been enjoying playing tennis on a weekly basis with friends and has even started running. He (not so secretly) misses hockey, snow & everything attached with winter. I, on the other hand, miss none of it.
