Yesterday the ZIM Team departed for Canada. The last 3 days were spent in Livingstone as a rewards for two and a half weeks of real hardwork. On personal note, I really enjoyed playing golf on Thursday at the Royal Livingstone Golf Club with Dave V., Deryn and Joe. It was one of my highlights of this Mission Teams visit and something I really needed (I hate golf, I hate golf. Nice Shot. I love golf! - thanks guys!)

The three weeks flew by and despite one or two hiccups, the whole mission was a huge success. For the hospital, we finally got the roof on the Nurses Training School white elephant for the last eighteen months (see picture), we started the process of making our Seminar Centre accomodation self contained and added 3 new single living quarters in Sweden House (Nurses accomodation). On top of that they sorted out a new basketball court for the High School, lead and financed an SA officers retreat, ran a activity/bible camp for a week and helped at the Youth Day. A huge effort from people with huge hearts.

Heidie and I have thoroughly enjoyed their company. The Canadian Salvation Army and indeed Canada should be very proud of these people. Twalumba
