In the “it’s an amazing world” category I just got an email from Joe O’Brien of The Fuller Center- Brazzaville. (These communications marvels continue to amaze those of us who grew up with dial telephones.) He wrote to say that the group from Engineering Ministries International (eMi) had arrived to start work on planning the new village we are going to build at Makana. eMi is a great organization that solves engineering problems for other nonprofits around the world. We are delighted to have them with us in the Republic of the Congo. The photo shows the eMi group at their first meeting with village leaders.

Time now to rest from my labors. The only problem with working in places like this is that it’s hard to tell if you’re really working!
