\n\"\"<\/a>We’ve added tilapia to the dam reservoir to see how they do
\n\"\"<\/a>This is Roy & Zweli planting the first tropical fruit tree from the nursery tunnel, into the orchard.\u00a0 These guys work hard together, and Zweli is catching the vision, eager to learn, taking quickly to everything, from compost to bible study.\u00a0 We are blessed to have him to carry on when we return soon to CAR.\u00a0 Please pray for Zweli as he will be even more busy soon, come March 15th when we have to leave.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our hearts are full of gratitude to the dear couple who have made ALL this B2E ministry possible.\u00a0 Their gifts over the past two years have provided everything, from nursery tunnels to irrigation systems.\u00a0 Thank you, Thom & Noranne!!<\/p>\n
