 Having great services over here. Many people responding to the messages. Problems with internet service though. Please Keep praying as I have many more services to go. Getting a couple of vacation days. They have taken me to Victoria Falls for a couple of days. Head back for the next services Thursday. 7-8 hour drive. Bad roads, cattle, goats, donkeys, and monkeys crossing the roads. BIG elephant  made us stop back a ways while he decided what he was going to do. Hopefully I can get some pictures on. Soon. I have limited data.
