In early 2009 we felt urged to send some more practical aid to Fiziland, and thought of sending a container. In the event, a 30′ truck became available for sale and this proved to be a better buy. With the help of family and friends from all over the country we were able to pack the truck with 30 sewing machines, a similar number of bicycles, garden tools, building materials and tools, clothes, toys and much more!

Thank you so much to everyone who made this project possible! The team experienced some serious health issues along the way and we are grateful to God for bringing us through.

The truck was shipped from England in June and almost made it to Fiziland! It broke down about 60 miles from its destination but ‘our’ tractor went out to meet it and towed it home. What a spectacular sight this must have been on the appalling roads and if only we had a photograph!
