Dear All
This week we have had a change around in roles, instead of Paul leaving everyone in Dar, Edith has left everyone in Dar and went to Arusha with some friends for a wedding. She has been having a great time from what we hear, she left on Thursday and should be back in Dar tomorrow.
Last week all went well during the week with the Children at school. John-Luke now has four days a week, with after school activities, two days he is in the swimming club, then another he does Guitar lessons and then also a scrap book club. Gabbie does not have any after school activities, as the school does not have them for the younger classes but at least last week she was able to have a sleep over at a friends house.
Paul was able to complete the September figures last week, so hopefully this week he will be able to work on some bank issues and stock questions that need some deeper investigation. There is also a review of the programme in Tanzania at present and this also giving Paul some extra work as he puts figures together for these different options. Please pray that we will know the Lord's guidance as we go through this process.
Have a good week and God Bless.
Love from us all.
Paul, Edith, John-Luke and Gabriella

We are still here
Dear All
We are still here! Sorry for not writing before now but things have been rather busy for us. We had hoped to send a news letter out in September but it still sits unfinished at present due to the current work load.
Edith and the children have continued on here in Dar for the past week, but now the school swimming pool has reopened Edith is rather busy helping out on several days with swimming. Edith is also on Thursday travelling to Arusha for a wedding she has been invited to so Paul will stay in Dar with the children, Edith will return on Monday.
Paul returned last week from a week or so in Dodoma mainly working on the September figures. He was not able to complete all the work due to other meetings for himself and Frank his Deputy, also his last day of working in Dodoma was a national holiday so most people were off. Since returning to Dar he has taken three days holiday as last week was the half term break for the children, so we were able to do some things together. So hopefully by the middle of the coming week he will have the September figures completed.
During the days off we were able to spend some time with a friend from Switzerland. Micheal had been over for a couple of months helping out in the hanger in Dodoma and travelled back with Paul to Dar on Tuesday, he was joined by his girl friend Barbara, so we had some time as a family together with them and then on Friday Edith and Paul took them around to see a little bit of Dar including one of the craft markets.
We have to visit the British high commission to try and get some information from them so please pray that this is successful.
Many thanks for your prayers and support, may you all know God's blessing on the coming week.
With love from Paul, Edith, John-Luke and Gabriella.

We have had Rain
Dear All
Though the weather has been warming up this week we have had a couple of days with some rain, this has caused some flooding around particularly down in town.
Edith and the children are doing well and it's so good to see the children enjoying school so much. This Sunday we have a special service, we are saying goodbye to Pastor Len and his wife Marilyn the founding pastor of the church as they return to Canada, we also welcome Pastor Martin as he takes up the position as well as celebrating 7 years of the church being in existence.
Paul has this week in Dar and will travel to Dodoma on Monday to prepare the figures for September.
That is about all for now, thanks for your prayers and support.
God Bless and love from us all.
