We have had a real answer to prayer this week. Katy has found just the right person to take over her business. Rather than losing all of her hard work, a care-taker manager will be stepping in to run KatyRay for the coming few years. In an attempt to build up enough stock for Christmas, Katy has been frantically trying to stitch up 180 cushions by tomorrow!

I am very sad to have had my final week at Williams and Cleal. Though I hope to come in for one final day to finish my Mindy cabinet.
We enjoyed visiting two of our link churches yesterday. The first, Holy Trinity Barrow-Upon-Soar hosted us for their 9.45 service. It was a new experience for us processing out of the vestry with a robed choir, and to be seated at the front as guests of honour felt very Tanzanian! Everyone there was hugely welcoming and bought loads of Neema produce in support of the project.

Having enjoyed a sizeable bring and share lunch, we headed down the M1 to my old family church St John's Blackheath in time for the evening service. It was a trip down memory lane for me as I saw many of the guys who had seen me through my teenage years in the congregation. St John's already has a strong link with the Diocese of Mara, Tanzania and we hope to stay connected to projects like 'Go Make A Difference' in the future, see: http://www.gomadintanzania.org.uk/
