Colossians 1:3

Sometimes things just fall into place... recently I spent the day with Dr. Freret (BEAMS President). We spent the day traveling to Alabama to pick up a tractor and enjoying some good fellowship. On the way back to Gulfport, MS, I talked about the poor condition of our mission road in Zambia. Every year the rains damage the road causing what can be a 15 minute drive into a 45 minute drive. The poor road conditions limit our mobility as well as damage the mission and clinic vehicles. Dr. Freret happened to know a man that makes quality graders. After some time we were able to contact this man and see about purchasing a grader for Africa.

I went to pick put a 7ft grader this last Friday from this man. He said he was not going to charge me because of our ministry and efforts in Africa. The only payment he asked for was that  we pray for him, his family, and his business. This is such a huge blessing!! Once we get this equipment back to Kafulafuta, it will go a long way in keeping this road in manageable shape so that our mission work may continue to move forward! Thank you David Shaw for your willingness to give for the cause of Christ in Zambia, Africa!
