She took in short gasspy breathes of crisp, bitterly cold air and gazed up at a brilliantly blue sky.

Dear Richard…Grace to you and peace…my name is Rev Burgess Sindowe founder of Havenbase Missions and now Way To You Missions here in Chikankata rural district Zambia. You and I have been been friends and at one time you shared some info and was willing to fund a drip irrigation project here in rural Zambia. A lot has happened since then and it would be an honor to fill you in with some catch ups…we are working on rehabilitating an abandoned clinic to cater healthcare for a population of over 3000 people and honestly we are struggling financially hence your involvement in this project would bring a turn around of hope to my rural community. Let me know your thoughts and share your email address so I can forward some of our pix and vids for this upcoming project…thanks and God bless you sir.

Al and I met Naomi and Richard when we started going to Eastbrook Church. They were so welcoming and caring. We belonged to their Life Group. Naomi was always there when I needed advice. She will be missed. Naomi was such a blessing in my life.
