Here is an e-mail I received form Renatus earlier this week.  Heard from him again yesterday and they have begun setting the post for the rainy season building.  It is so cool that we can be a part of reaching people for Christ thousands of miles from home.  Make sure you check out the picture.  I recognize so many of my new friends.  Really looking forward to going back in May

Letter from Renatus:


Dearest pastor Dean,
 
Thank you so much for your prayers. I am doing fine now. My wife and my children are doing fine now. i have been so sick. the head ache, flue (not swine flu) and malaria also. Now am recovering.  thank you so much.
 
i have attached some pictures from my church. These pictures show people in 5 point t-shirts. tell the church that my people were very happy and that they sent their blessings and appreciation for this project.  Thank you so much.
 
Church building
 
we hope to start the building tomorrow. we have been waiting for posts. the posts will arrive tomorrow morning and we hope to start as soon as they arrive. people are looking forward to have their own building very soon this week.
 
Chairs
my church has decided to hire a room to store our chairs close to our church for it is raining so much. last Sunday was very hard for us to take chairs. the church will take care of this. Again, thank you so much.

I have the mosquito nets ready to be taken to the lepers also. i was there today it is sad to see the way they live now. They have no food, they can't get out to go to town to ask for something for their daily basis. it is sad.
 
we love you, we love our mother church 5 point of SC.
 
 IN HIM
Renatus
