Yesterday's rain at Green Pastures of 42 mm (1.75 inches) was a very pleasant surprise for which we are grateful to God and thank you for your prayers. Normally in June we can get the odd light shower but this amount is most unusual. This takes us up to a total this rainy season of 652 mm. The rain yesterday will really help the 6,000 tree seedlings we planted this year and which were already doing much better than those planted last year. Now this good rain will surely help most of them survive the routine drought in the second half of 2016.
We have fish in our lake again which were given to us by a neighbour so that is nice and is attracting lots of aquatic birds.
I finished my sermon preparation late last night for this Sunday's Communion service. I will preach on "The Way - establishing the church in Ephesus". (Acts 19:8-12) I finally got to terms with verses 11-12 which took me hours!
Tonight is the big annual united church outreach in Patos called "Jesus is so Good"! Our church is always well involved of course, which is good. Please pray.
