So this weekend I had a visit from my friend Emma Doxat-Pratt (EDP to her friends). EDP has been working on the King's Arms Project Nightshelter team for the the last year and is my first visitor from home.
Ive loved having her stay, her energy, positivity and hard work have been a real joy to be around.
Our adventures started with us asking God one morning what shall we do today?
We thought we should go "be a blessing" to people, so went to my favourite village and visited some friends there. Two people got healed when we prayed and we had lots of fun walking around and chatting away.
The rest of our time we have chilled out, went swimming, went to chapel, snuggled with dogs, watched Gilmore Girls and Miranda, cooked an amazing curry with Brownies for pudding, slept, laughed, caught up on news from home and generally had a great time.
Yesterday I decided Id take Emma to the local school in our lunch break, we got there, looked around and then thought,
"lets go to the village in the bush Anne-Mette is staying".
So we got in the car and ventured on the terrible mud road out there.
About 5km in, the mud got a bit squishy,
by about 5.5km we were stuck fast, car wont budge, calf deep in thick, warm, squishy mud...............
Eventually a kind truck driver stopped, chatted, pushed and then had to rescue us by pulling us out with a rope!
(Its amazing how warm mud can feel so nice between your toes!?)
Emma then ran the KOP office for the afternoon with Lister and Mrs Chomba, they saw 3 people healed of pain.
So Id like to say Thanks Emma, You have been an absolutely stonking great blessing and I have so enjoyed your company.
(And thanks to all who sent greetings, cards and presents with EDP.)
