Lilongwe, Malawi
This week marked the celebration of independence in two of my homes. Of course, the United States celebrated its 241st year of freedom on July 4th. While Malawi, my newest home, celebrated its 53rd year of freedom on July 6th.
I love the fourth of July in the US, it's a wonderful celebration, but the closest thing we have to a "theme" is…

re: The Rains Down in Africa 7/52Denise Oh wow, this entry made me all teary, which doesn't often happen. What an eventful blog, with the Kubiks' arrival, hot water, border crossing again, Bible study with drunk visitors, and the stories of Alyda and Alfred and his family. How amazing. Thank you, Lena. You and Lewis and the brethren are in our prayers. Have a wonderful Passover and feast. Much love!
