Missionary Field Retreat

Our team leader decided that it was time for our field to combine business with pleasure and scheduled a retreat on the shores of Lake Malawi at Danforth Yatching.  Any spot on the lake would offer a wonderful setting for such a meeting, but this was especially fun for our group.
Our team presently on the ground consists of Bill & Sharon Johnston, Larry & Rhonda Allen, John & Judy Young, and Gaylord & myself.  The Allens are just returning from furlough, and the Youngs are here working on construction projects.  It was so great to share in times of administration, devotion and recreation together.

As we left, we visited the site where the first missionaries to Malawi are buried.

As the local newspaper back home would add, “A great time was had by all!”
