Biogas demonstration

Terry has recently built another biogas generator and placed it near the area where they kill animals each day for sale of the meat in town. The generator consists of three metal barrels welded together to form one long barrel. He placed a pipe on it so it is easier to fill and then filled with water and manure. It hasn't begun to make gas very well yet so we ask you to pr-y for it to produce gas. This is an area where many people will see it and our pr-yer is for people to want to learn more, about not only biogas, but the reason we have come to Kondoa. It will be in this place during the time we are stateside and then when we return in October we will see where it leads.

They are attaching a pipe (not a stove pipe although it looks like one) to pour the manure and water into the barrels.

Setting the barrels on rocks with pieces of inner tube as protection.

Here Terry and two men who were working nearby set the three barrels up. This is on the river bank so it give a good gentle slope to the barrels.

Terry fills the barrels with manure, this makes the gas to cook with-thus Biogas!

Calf Report

Here you see the calf we showed you a couple of weeks ago, as you can see the legs are strong and the calf is healthy. See the #7 on her forehead, seven in Swahili is saba (saa-baa) and that is what I & R are calling the calf. They are very proud of this little heifer. Thank you for pr-ying for the calf, the L uses many things to get us into homes to share His word.

We have six weeks from Sunday before we fly out for out stateside. Pr-ay for our time left here and that we are used to His glory.

Artificial Insemination Calf

This is Terry's latest calf, born on Saturday, February 25th. This is one way we have been able to get into the homes of M's, friends from another world religion. The calf has a weak joint in it's left front leg. After it nursed Terry made a sling to hold the calf up and a splint for the leg. They will put the calf in the sling and splint several times each day with the desire to strengthen the front leg. Pr-y for the calf, that the leg will strengthen and it will be able to walk and nurse. When we are able to help in these simple ways it gives us more credibility among this people group. Pr-y for our friends I & R, and their family, that we can continue to share the TRUTH with them.
