While Foster, one of the workers/missionaries at our site, was working on the veranda for the orphan girl’s house, a snake came from under a rock and tried to strike Him. Instead of the snake biting his leg, it simply hit his leg with its mouth. He looked to see what hit his leg, and then quickly jumped away. He used the tool in his hand to kill it. The Lord preserved Foster from a snake bite that could have cost him his leg or even his life.
I rode my motorbike to Utimuile village last Friday to do a drama and minister with the rest of our missionary team. About 100 meters from the site I heard a big “pop!”. My front tire tube had suddenly popped (and there was a rip in the seam of the front tire). The bike went right and left, back and forth, but the Lord kept me upright. After stopping the bike, I moved it to the side of the road by the school, and joined the rest of the team. The tire was temporarily fixed, so I could go to the city and buy a new tire and tube.
