New Bathroom

Here it is... the bathroom Caroline's Dad has been working on for the past month. Nice eh?!

Sossusvlei

Just been to one of the most amazing sights in Namibia, Sossusvlei. Beautiful dunes, amazing landscapes and a very relaxing time. Apart from the car getting stuck in the sand, breaking down on the way home and the catch on the door to the boot breaking, we had a marvellous time :-) T'was lots of fun and a good rest before a busy time ahead; a 2 week student project to the north and our 10 year celebrations of Campus Crusade in Namibia.

Please pray...


Please would you join us in praying for our friends and fellow Agape staff, Martin and Rachel, whose 2nd eldest son, Sam, at the young age of 11 was tragically killed in a hit and run on 1st May. They are, of course, devastated. They have 3 other sons, Jake, Tom and Josh.

Nate turned 5!


Can you believe it? Our little boy is 5 year's old! He had a 'Mr Men' and 'Little Miss' party. Nathan was Mr Bump. Emily chose her own character, Little Miss Chatterbox. Quite apt!

The North's Depart

Caroline's Mum and Dad have just left Namibia leaving a huge empty space. We had a fabulous, relaxing four weeks together, although I think Dad might debate the word 'relaxing' having re-tiled our bathroom! It was lovely to be together again and we miss them all the more for it :-)

Women's Bible Study


Every tuesday a group of women from various churches, countries and backgrounds come together to study the word, pray for one another, drink tea and eat cake! It's a very encouraging time for me (Caz, not Geoff!) We are currently looking at Proverbs. Pictured here is most of the group, from left to right, front to back... Caz, Susan, Cathy and Erin, Margi, Priscilla, Roelien, Hilary, Rachael and Tindiri representing England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Australia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa and of course, Namibia!

Belated House Warming Party

Yesterday we had over 40 guests descend on our pad to warm our house for a very British afternoon tea and cake! It was a really good time and made us realise how far we've come from knowing just a handful of people to building up a good network of friends. We still have a long way to go of course but we are feeling settled here. A number of children enjoyed decorating biscuits and having their faces painted while the adults chatted.
