We're expected at the church in a short while, so we don't have much time...

We got through the airports surpisingly well...and had some of our overweight bags overlooked.  Once we went through customs in Lusaka, none of our bags got checked, which meant we didn't have to pay any taxes on a lot of the gear we brought.  They also only charged us $50 for our visas instead of the $100 we were expecting.

Currently, we're staying on a 5000 acre farm where the Chambers rent a house.  We got our tent up out in the back!

We are hitting the ground running.  Our time here will be split between Choma (the town) and Nambaaza (the bush).  Sunday, we went to the church we will be working at in Choma.  The pastor, Arthur, is also acting as our translator and teaching us the ways of the land.

This week, we'll be working on getting the church grounds ready to host a camp (clearing fields for big games, setting up some low ropes elements, etc), training some nationals, and coming up with the plans for the week.We'll be hosting a 3 day camp at the start of next week for the children at the local school.This camp we will talk about trust in Christ, Christ rescuing us, and then eternal security.  After this camp, we'll take a day to prep for the bush and then spend 2 straight weeks out in the bush.

We gotta run, but a few prayer requests:
-getting the church grounds ready
-training Derrick (one of the nationals to help us)-he's unsaved, but eager to learn more
-ideas and brainstorming as we work on the porgramming and lessons.

We should have more time later this week to update better.
