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.

THIS'N'THAT

Two cockroaches.
When they get really big, you don't see them until they come out of hiding to die on their backs.
FYI: No, I didn't squish them. I found them dead.


Traffic circle. Give way.


Good deal!



Living Waters Church, near Mt. Soche in Blantyre.

Mum is at the top of the stairs. Arnold is at the bottom.





Big church: I needed three shots to get the whole thing.







Seating for over 1000.
About 600 or so were there when we visited last Sunday.
Mum and I were the only "pale" ones.




1/4 of the Praise Team




Mt. Soche (so'-chee)
This is the view from Living Waters Church.




First practice for guys from little Likhubula church.



Mango tree in our back yard, losing some of its leaves.



 
Rainy day. You can see my bedroom window open.




 
The eucalyptus trees bent waaaay over in the wind.



Good drainage.

"You shop, we drop"

Must see what's in here someday.

No way that dog lives in Malawi.
