The New Mixer Arrives!


Yesterday June 14 we bought our new concrete mixer and now we are getting ready to pour the slab floor. The photo shows the guys who helped unload it and it looks like a good solid unit - made in Italy with a 430 L capacity. Thanks to those who contributed to make this purchase possible. We are looking forward to purchasing a lot of cement since we already have the sand and the stone needed for making the concrete - we just need the cement now. It currently sells for about $17.00 USD for a 50 kg bag. We need about 400 bags to pour the whole floor so if you are interested in "pouring" with us why not log onto the BICWM website and assisting with a few bags of cash (I mean cement.) Thanks for your on going prayer support as we meet this month in Area Council Meetings with all the congregations to work on the kingdom business here in Malawi with the Brethren in Christ and to encourage the Malawian church to give to this project. Recently we received besides a good cash offering of almost $100 USD equivalent, a bag of maize, a bag of cement, a goat, a chicken and some beans. You can donate on line here: http://www.bic-church.org/wm/give/partnership/malawi and scroll down to the Maone Church Center.
