A man who was working as the grounds manager at the college has recently been fired. Apparently several things had been going missing: blankets and sheets, cooking pots and pans, etc. It didn't take long to figure out that someone inside the college who holds the keys to storage rooms and to individual housing units was the one who would have done this. This man was SUCH a nice guy--really cheerful, jovial, pleasant, kind. It was such a disappointment to see that this Christian man gave in to the temptation to steal from the college. At times like this, we can't help but get discouraged at the state of the church here and we can only hope that by playing our part in the building up of the body, that the church will deepen and mature. We've been reminded through this incident that the Zimbabwean church is under a lot of pressure for survival, but that God still desires his people to be obedient to him in the midst of hardship. Please be praying for the church here as they need strength to live as God would want them to live even in tough times as these.
