I have been putting away money to go to Zanzibar. I will be leaving to go to Zanzibar right after Thanksgiving this year to deliver a baby for some missionary friends. I delivered their first baby on January 1, 2007, and they are expecting another boy. His due date is December 12, 2008. I expect to be there until the middle of December, and then return. I am waiving my usual midwife fee and doing this as a service to them and to God.
And last Friday morning I had $605.
Now the fare to Tanzania is approximately $2000, so I wasn't quite halfway there.
But thanks to the generosity of two friends, on Friday, the amount I had increased by $800! That's an amazing amount to receive in one day...
So now I have $1405 for the trip. I know that God will continue to be faithful to provide everything and everyone I need for this service.
And today I just want to toot God's horn. This morning I had an amazing time just playing and singing praise songs...
