Welcome to "Through a Glass Darkly" - my blog about my service trip to Malawi, Africa.

I left Canada on December 30th for Blantyre, Malawi, AFRICA. I worked with Friends of Malawi Fellowship (FOMF), the organization headed by my aunt Phyllis Labrentz. I taught English language and literature, helping secondary high school students learn to read and write English well enough to pass the government exams.
During that time I was also kept busy teaching guitar, singing, and assisting my aunt.
I left Malawi on July 19th and returned to Canada on July 20th.

MY MALAWI HOUSE

Back yard - that's the mission trip truck that needs to be fixed ($550).
front of house--door leads into the kitchen

back gate --access to path behind the house leading to the bridge and the school/church land

back steps--I want to see these fixed for Mum, soon.

  3. Yes, agree about the steps. It wouldn't be good if Grandma fell and broke a hip. -GM
