Update From Tanzania

We visited several villages and saw the wells, etc. but did not really have time for tea with them except at New Land.

Consequently, they presented us with a live chicken. The first was given to directly to Mark and so we named it Ben in honor of the tradition that Kyle started in Ethopia. Of course the next two completed the Dalton clan. Two of them went home with Solomon but, alas, the third was given to the kitchen for Jacob's supper—I think it was Lisa.

Wednesday we started our day by going to the diocese office so that Mark could determine their computer status. While he was there, I accompanied Grant to St Mary's hospital so that he could pay for a man's hernia surgery. Quite a witness considering the man was not a Christian and he had to work through the evangelist to get this done. The evangelist was at the hospital with him. We next visited Gazeulole. There we had a good visit with Leonard and viewed the well. When we asked how many people used the well we were given a figure of about 500. Tonight is the english-speaking service at the school and Grant is leading it. I imagine if we don't like the TV selections we shall attend.

As to soccer balls, they were all given to Grant for his distribution. They will go to the villages and be used also for Kid's Camp.

Grant read the menu for tomorrow's dinner and it is to be duck, so our Thanksgiving dinner should be quite good.

Hopefully all of you back home will have a great Thanksgiving and as memorable of a day as I'm sure we will have.
Blessings to all
Love Mike
