Vine and Branches

Volume 11, Issue 2

April 2011

“I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me, and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5

SINCE WE LAST WROTE …

David (Theological College of Central Africa) …

was “deeply offended” while jogging through Lusaka when crowds started calling him Wayne Rooney [the ugliest man in soccer].
taught Church History in Lusaka to some brothers from Zimbabwe and Zambia.
preached three times in the month of March.
taught one of his favorite classes, the book of Genesis.
hosted TCCA students in our home to watch Amazing Grace, a movie on the life of William Wilberforce.

Terri (wife, mother, homemaker) …

helped a pastor and his wife from Illinois who came to Ndola to adopt three children. They encountered incredible frustrations with the legal and social welfare system.
began to meet with two ladies from our church to pray, study and do evangelism.
helped out a missionary family when they needed someone to watch their kids (ages 14, 6, 3 and 1.5) for a week.
gave a seminar on hospitality to the ladies at our college and one to the ladies of our church on time management.

Lizzie (Senior, Indiana University) and Lane Bowman …

stayed for a short while on the St. John’s River in Florida over spring break and Lizzie was able to meet some Bowman relatives.
looked forward to the end of Lizzie’s college studies. She only has two semesters to go. By the end of the first week of May, she will officially be a senior.
Lizzie came down with mono …
and discovered that mono is no fun and requires near total rest for recovery.

Mary (Freshman, Ivy Tech College) …

traveled to Cape Town with Réze Schreuder over her spring break.
communicated in Afrikaans, walked into grocery stores bare-foot and rode to the top of Table Mt.
sadly, she and Réze were robbed. Thankfully, everything but cell phones were recovered.
prepared to move into a house with four girls from our home church.

John (Grade 11, Simba International School) …

slowly recovered from a sprained wrist.
went on holiday with his family to northern Zambia on the shores of Lake Tanganyika.
and Sarah learned how to scuba dive and snorkel. David was less successful; Terri sat this one out. Amazing views of fish and eels. See below.
does chin-ups with a back-pack filled with books.

Sarah (Grade 10, Simba International School) …

helped one of our dogs through ear surgery. A blood vessel burst. Believe me, that’s all you want to know.
bruised a finger playing basketball.
participated in a talent/fashion show at school.
caught three large fish; John caught a Nile perch; Dad was wearing red so he caught nothing. See below.

Please pray for David and Terri Wegener,

Serving with Mission to the World in Zambia.

1. For someone to rent our home in Ndola while we are on Home Assignment, July 2011 to July 2012.

2. For the board that oversees TCCA as they choose the next principal of the college. Rev. Joe Simfukwe has served so well for the last ten years.

3. For wisdom for David as he deals with a rash of plagiarism cases at our college.

Many Thanks for your Prayers and Financial Support!
