Thank you for your prayers and support of the Lord's work here in Zimbabwe. Thank you for
the letters, birthday cards, Christmas cards and gifts that you sent. In looking over my income
for 1991 Ican see how the Lord has supplied my needs through your generosity. Some of you
give faithfully each month, some every other month or every third month and some annually.
Some of you give through the church and some as individuals. For 1991 my income averaged
$1548.56 per month. Thank you again for your part in the work here. Continue to pray for
wisdom that the right decisions will be made concerning the work here.
CHmSTIAN STANDARD
This letter is a little earlier than in other years because Iknow that some of you would be upset
if you were not notified in advance of my lesson's appearance. It should be in the March 22,
1992, issue of "Christian Standard." When Iwas asked to write the lesson the title "Restoration
to Wholeness" and the text Mark 7:24-37 were supplied.
ZIMBABWE CHRISTIAN COLLEGE
At the annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the College, Jack Pennington resigned as
Principal of ZCC but will continue to teach. Dave Altman was asked to be the Principal
because of the many years experience he has had in administration. At the same meeting it
was announced that Jayne Linda Free would be resigning in May. In the next few months we
need to have the work permits extended for Dave Altman and Lewis Captain, the Academic
Dean.
COMPUTERITIS
Because Iplan to move to Masvingo at the end of 1992 and work at CAMELS Print Shop it will
be necessary for me to know how to use the computer. Each year the print shop is closed
down at Christmas time so all the employees can take a vacation. Ihad CAMELS' Macintosh
computer at my house for four weeks. In the past Ihave made remarks about people that
spend so much time at the computer but during these four weeks Ihad trouble leaving it even
to eat meals and go to bed at a reasonable time. Now that it Is gone Ihave recovered and am
acting more nearly normal. Ispent most of the time learning to use PageMaker and even had
some things ready to be printed when the presses started running in January.
HARARE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Martin Laurence began an interim ministry with the English speaking church in January.
Besides preaching and teaching Sunday School he is working with the high school young
pdople on Friday nights. The young people like him and attendance has been increasinq. He
IS part time as he also teaches at ZCC.
None of the houses being built near the church were occupied in December but now they say
people will start getting possession in March. Phase 1 has 325 houses and people have
started signing up for Phase 2. Several families from the church have signed up for a house
for our Thursday night home prayer meeting and Bible study runs around 12 adults.
PRAYER
Perhaps vou have noticed in the above news some of the answers to
dles ansZ us as we seek to do His will. Let us continue to ask H,m for His blessing.
In Christian Love,
Ku"

Greetings from HOT Zimbabwe!! Some people say that it must get hot before we have agood rainy season which
we certainly need this year. The country is on water rationing which is more severe in some areas than in others
electricity ^a^oning. Part of this is caused by Lake Kariba being so low that the hydroelectric plant
as cut back production for both Zambia and Zimbabwe. Most of the water for Lake Kariba comes from Zaire and
northern Angola, so you can see that the whole of southern Africa needs rain.
In areas severely affected by last year's drought there are various feeding programs. Many of these families will
have trouble raising crops this year even if It rains because the animals that they used for plowing have died IDES
