Shipment
Today started out as a typical Sunday morning in Namwianga. Following church and lunch everyone was on their own until the 5:00 dinner time. Some slept, some read, some worked, some played, and some got lucky enough to access the internet. I was strolling around the yard searching for pictures to capture with my camera when I noticed the excitement in front of the main house -- "The Hamby House" - the house with the verandah on which we eat each meal. The headquarters. A shipment from the states arrived with much needed supplies for the clinic and the Havens. It was a big deal and it took almost all afternoon. About twenty-five men came to help unload and deliver the goods. And a policeman showed up to supervise. He rode his bicycle from Choma. No gun. There was the usual bit of confusion and organized chaos, but all went well. It was a good day!
