Life in the 3rd World

Okay, this isn't Rebekah or Dion, but Susan, Bek's mum. She has asked me to post this as they still have no internet connection. The story so far is that there is no power, someone stole the oil out of the transformer and it ground to a hault. They are waiting for a new one, and living with generators for the moment, but they can't be run all the time. They have been waiting for some help to get their internet up and running, which I think they have done, but there is now no phone line in or out of Chivhu, so still no communications.We have spoken to them a couple of times via mobile phone and they seems to be doing okay. They haven't moved into their house yet because of the power problelm and the weather has turned very cold, colder than they expected.

I will leave it at that, I'm sure they will be posting all their news soon. Keep praying for them (only 11 months left!)

Susan
