While visiting at Pastor Ron's house, the big chief came by, Chief Dzuwa. He is over 46 other chiefs and their villages. He is a charming man, with a good sense of humor. We had the disadvantage of having most of the conversation go through Ron as the interpreter, however (I have GOT to learn Chichewa!) He has a heart for his people. He told us how he had been asking God for deliverance of his village (so much witchcraft for a long time), a good school and a nearby clinic... as he said, 'God overtook me, and gave me a clinic right here, and missionaries to help us'. He sold Ron and his team all the land they needed for their homes and the clinic and clinic housing - which is really a big deal, because the chief does not always sell land to outsiders! We pray for him long and healthy life, and a continued vision for his people. The picture is Chief Dzuwa and Ron Chmzimu.
