According to James the rainy season seems to be pretty much over…and so is his time in Mulundi.  He has less than two weeks remaining. There was a lot of rain this year so there should be reasonable crops and in a few months the famine should be over.

Last week he met with Canon Simba who oversees St. Mary’s Kalawa Parish, (of which St. James Batavia is a member). He and the Canon spent time philosophizing about the future of the church in general as well as discussing the need for a fellowship hall at St. James.

He also told me that a girl in his class said that it is good for a man to have two wives: then he will be fat.

The new puppies, born a couple of weeks ago, are getting more adventurous and he hiked up Kavuvoni hills on Saturday.  He is going to look for a Kamba hymnal to bring home with him.
