Things are getting off to a beautiful, green, and very soggy start this year in Lusaka. Camp Ciyanjano looks more like a jungle right now than it has for a few years, and the roads around here look more like stream beds. Every year during hot season we pray to the Lord for good rains and this year they have come abundantly --thank you, Jesus! However, the unfortunate part of a great rainy season is a lot of flooding and overflowing pit latrines around the city. Along with transportation problems and other difficulties, serious Cholera outbreaks occur.</p><p>We thank God that in our neighborhood we haven't heard of any Cholera cases yet, but the situation is bad and so we ask you to pray for Lusaka! The mini-hospital near us is a base for some of the Cholera cases and we are hearing ambulances often. Sadly there have been hundreds of deaths.</p><p>Please pray for continued safety and health for us and our staff and network. Pray that God would help people to make good hygiene/health choices, especially about water, and protect people from Cholera. Pray that government and especially church leaders would serve the people with needed supplies and productive, wise solutions to this ongoing issue.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQvrf1ixKMVESpTRhqPvow7JhE8bMYEj7sWA8msH1CywE5BPAGUoEt38u2jQcUkytk7nsI3aLMBI5BfrbIa5xHJpd-6AymVP5SR6L0UMFeEzG6_OCX2GWhHJoD25f8zpFXg8-PlZFZjMPELjT69fMmrr4uuX6j-1fpjen-qHJYNOCWskcXJmPbJjhRy0SB/s640/back%20end.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQvrf1ixKMVESpTRhqPvow7JhE8bMYEj7sWA8msH1CywE5BPAGUoEt38u2jQcUkytk7nsI3aLMBI5BfrbIa5xHJpd-6AymVP5SR6L0UMFeEzG6_OCX2GWhHJoD25f8zpFXg8-PlZFZjMPELjT69fMmrr4uuX6j-1fpjen-qHJYNOCWskcXJmPbJjhRy0SB/s320/back%20end.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqOC0A-Zk0T54Ws_hx03fnwQrAADem5M-9TUWFb05ZSrMljZvGsVlJCeK0eXYHIM78L4j31rdY5I_9srRJGjXDlAF_ZoKbid3fKN_IZZWQ0aJCNzqfhtvmFCqIxFLYByWNEiqh-4toiGm1ZuwZV3V4PKqjFT4bMy3SEalHSXE_zEwGuNSBX4GJ4CIbdtVi/s640/Louie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqOC0A-Zk0T54Ws_hx03fnwQrAADem5M-9TUWFb05ZSrMljZvGsVlJCeK0eXYHIM78L4j31rdY5I_9srRJGjXDlAF_ZoKbid3fKN_IZZWQ0aJCNzqfhtvmFCqIxFLYByWNEiqh-4toiGm1ZuwZV3V4PKqjFT4bMy3SEalHSXE_zEwGuNSBX4GJ4CIbdtVi/s320/Louie.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixL6my4Ago_yM-0knO_e3cUwT32fYteLlIh9-BDFWnr2hS-ywlkIEgP8Lv9xuqZEJFVOvw7OPNSKm24brxZs8g-3ib9qCK6vuGjxqKxEVf06btdIDVWhp94z6_kREe4M3JY8p09V9TAzfaJsxYIJmN9vOAOO2l7EpyyuZYIFygGqgFC-Zl6LS4AzO29DJN/s640/Side%20garden.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixL6my4Ago_yM-0knO_e3cUwT32fYteLlIh9-BDFWnr2hS-ywlkIEgP8Lv9xuqZEJFVOvw7OPNSKm24brxZs8g-3ib9qCK6vuGjxqKxEVf06btdIDVWhp94z6_kREe4M3JY8p09V9TAzfaJsxYIJmN9vOAOO2l7EpyyuZYIFygGqgFC-Zl6LS4AzO29DJN/s320/Side%20garden.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF90VLdZVCZSrG8rRdVsEDzPgqSUot6IiQ_wYI-RIgGrfK_OKJYH7Rc25WaRamtmDMRZaePTl6G2lKkRWi3K_SbXRKgoTigCeOrNnxUxWYwGn0guKKXtXWrHeTNC9yPlOlhw_Cr7Wi4KnC6zhYelq9e71V9tG5xhx9ydKbb44-T4rG0uwm49SoTHaYML8q/s640/verandah.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF90VLdZVCZSrG8rRdVsEDzPgqSUot6IiQ_wYI-RIgGrfK_OKJYH7Rc25WaRamtmDMRZaePTl6G2lKkRWi3K_SbXRKgoTigCeOrNnxUxWYwGn0guKKXtXWrHeTNC9yPlOlhw_Cr7Wi4KnC6zhYelq9e71V9tG5xhx9ydKbb44-T4rG0uwm49SoTHaYML8q/s320/verandah.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>The Huckaby Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09232089434507611710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744324852401961801.post-8916668251850976752023-11-16T20:13:00.000-08:002023-11-16T20:13:57.339-08:00Teen Girls Bible Study<p>This quarter I issued a challenge at my teen girls Bible study: if a young lady could memorize a page of scriptures I gave them by the end of the year, they could earn a beautiful Bible for themselves. Over these many weeks a lot of the girls said they were working on the challenge, but I really wasn't sure what to expect. I purchased four pretty, hard-backed Bibles and waited. Finally this week a few ladies showed up at my door ready to give the Bible Verse Memory Challenge a go. All three of the young women did an excellent job with all of the scriptures and earned a Bible each. I was so impressed and encouraged! I think I need to go buy more Bibles this week! Please pray for the young ladies in the study to continue to grow in faith as they read God's word. Also please pray for me and auntie Judy as we lead and as I also pray about starting up a women's Bible study after the new year (which I haven't done in years). Thanks so much!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxIQxu14K9x1eozbS6pCEGwCv3iL_6CpvRuTkIt2KPLmmt__ahPlfisDvfCxQ3-uHUBe8-ywZgNfJqmMF6zWU9tWMCPvnoN07BwIoJeyGX0uFo6gciFwKjc0hoO2A9v6U340oQklVk85bFljevwaYrIQwAUg132habjyO-hINgPhXJxFhVKguTiJ8-AVKV/s640/IMG_5275.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxIQxu14K9x1eozbS6pCEGwCv3iL_6CpvRuTkIt2KPLmmt__ahPlfisDvfCxQ3-uHUBe8-ywZgNfJqmMF6zWU9tWMCPvnoN07BwIoJeyGX0uFo6gciFwKjc0hoO2A9v6U340oQklVk85bFljevwaYrIQwAUg132habjyO-hINgPhXJxFhVKguTiJ8-AVKV/w640-h480/IMG_5275.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>The Huckaby Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09232089434507611710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744324852401961801.post-78147573236118525222023-09-01T02:56:00.001-07:002023-09-01T02:56:38.806-07:00Ciyanjano Reading Room Update<p>Hello to all of our Ciyanjano friends! August 2023 has been lovely and warm and busy around here with church groups from around the city and also an ACTION Zambia camp that was super fun. But today I would like to highlight our Ciyanjano Reading Room ministry to our community. You might recall that years ago we began serving our local Kasupe area with a free reading and study room that we set up out of a container. Well, the Reading Room continues to receive a steady stream of students of all ages, pastors, and teachers throughout the year. It becomes especially busy in the months before the larger end-of-year exams.</p><p>Because the Reading Room is a free service, we ask you to consider making a contribution to this ministry. Whenever the Reading Room is open, we have a paid attendant there to supervise the visitors and materials, keep the facility clean, and help out students looking for particular items. The Reading Room costs us about $1800 a year to run. Would you like to support this helpful service to our area in Lusaka West? Hundreds of students appreciate it!</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2TTzF8M6nIHnWTgjE7OajCjD4dfO5Cu6L4MsKmXy7lcNzl44RCldfx0rfey3_N1ZQR76KPf8IOHxCBJFAl-h_C5dWVMxVEVSJh99jkjHkmsG8h-lOD4IFlVDqFOhlMTDSc73vkGCxxu-aWlTPY9Vz83BFlHRdM3OEjw8xnV2UXD-LsdoW9GVMDHnnPRc1/s640/Reading%20Room%201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2TTzF8M6nIHnWTgjE7OajCjD4dfO5Cu6L4MsKmXy7lcNzl44RCldfx0rfey3_N1ZQR76KPf8IOHxCBJFAl-h_C5dWVMxVEVSJh99jkjHkmsG8h-lOD4IFlVDqFOhlMTDSc73vkGCxxu-aWlTPY9Vz83BFlHRdM3OEjw8xnV2UXD-LsdoW9GVMDHnnPRc1/s320/Reading%20Room%201.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLuuqLpFj1VgRhnAeVEyh4B0pBstQsEstV_DZoitOTjrtohc5QhiahDeevmm-utZfPf1DdTEl6DM17CTQRCmAY6DEqQ1vwubkuEOsf7WYTSI4n3-ObqGTHU4X25jx-YdueigRBw-Gp6JWLvRwSqq16vsV0FsfgfoB3E2m1XmBRhfLTdn5ivraVcbxfD3yz/s640/Reading%20Room%202.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLuuqLpFj1VgRhnAeVEyh4B0pBstQsEstV_DZoitOTjrtohc5QhiahDeevmm-utZfPf1DdTEl6DM17CTQRCmAY6DEqQ1vwubkuEOsf7WYTSI4n3-ObqGTHU4X25jx-YdueigRBw-Gp6JWLvRwSqq16vsV0FsfgfoB3E2m1XmBRhfLTdn5ivraVcbxfD3yz/s320/Reading%20Room%202.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkQ_oDhWIFV_DE1YvI9fWnKwMnF-br-arO6a17-5mjllmziT4pW3Uf_6ZLik1P32d5lTCf3pTTz-woJaLeDOMfEwfsm2Dff7-5LSMFYisVGE9ePCp40mv2Jmilut_K_xAuuqj7mPkD71DAdjoCLSNtLiqAmZgk0EtyeUVOeSYU3-row4W5yKtnFSbOGk8Q/s640/Reading%20Room%203.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkQ_oDhWIFV_DE1YvI9fWnKwMnF-br-arO6a17-5mjllmziT4pW3Uf_6ZLik1P32d5lTCf3pTTz-woJaLeDOMfEwfsm2Dff7-5LSMFYisVGE9ePCp40mv2Jmilut_K_xAuuqj7mPkD71DAdjoCLSNtLiqAmZgk0EtyeUVOeSYU3-row4W5yKtnFSbOGk8Q/s320/Reading%20Room%203.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg87hV1RYF3e28PIWMyNQIG-NIdo5-h1jmfnCbgdnCaQloBxcHj7N6fpTAeQmGVEP43Dg7LsSYIKACspjK22zgVHy73En9-rNpQ8HT__FXDq9b5TXNqmWU2aGTUP16w5PMeNugIHUBqzav-RrnKxV4iCpeBxyNnLjxT4M8AiUbDA-GG4oIUwKPYp40QNpv1/s640/Reading%20Room%204.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg87hV1RYF3e28PIWMyNQIG-NIdo5-h1jmfnCbgdnCaQloBxcHj7N6fpTAeQmGVEP43Dg7LsSYIKACspjK22zgVHy73En9-rNpQ8HT__FXDq9b5TXNqmWU2aGTUP16w5PMeNugIHUBqzav-RrnKxV4iCpeBxyNnLjxT4M8AiUbDA-GG4oIUwKPYp40QNpv1/s320/Reading%20Room%204.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />To support the Reading Room visit the Web site: actioninternational.org and search for Camp Ciyanjano under Ongoing Projects.

We really thank God for keeping Camp Ciyanjano busy with church groups. And the Ciyanjano Champions for Children (Champs) have been doing gospel outreaches and camp. We praise God!! Many young people are asking how they can follow Jesus and love to hear the good news about Him. Please pray for the large number of children and teens who have prayed to make Jesus their savior during the first half of this year--pray that they would be solidly rooted in God's word and in a church.

Nice to see you!<p>Here at ACTION Zambia we are pumped for the new year. For both our family and the ministry there are exciting changes coming up.</p><p><b>For our family: </b> We are so thankful and excited that God has provided funds for Ethel and Lucas to start school through the sale of a piece of personal property we sold and through the generous donations of our supporters. God bless you all that have prayed and helped out financially so that Ethel and Lucas can have this opportunity. They begin grade 10 together in two weeks and they will be boarding at the school Monday through Friday morning and returning home on the weekends. Joy, Mark, and Emmanuel will continue home school with me using a combination of Sonlight and abeka materials, which we were able to purchase while on home assignment. Please pray for all of us goofballs as we begin our 2023 school year!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl-mhTOmahxJ2Fmzw3OWl0DUkG54xSLYUfjaFl8xwC2Q6Pe9MkJKCxtsxJOm6vihoYd9GZM1_y-AxLdS57dLGth2QGr9cDb-emqRxzhQ9qYjkt_Mum4IJKwYebqefvdGOydpLUAjkIzV1ZnX0k-qa_8b1-MNvS3VJCjiHAJAujrx_iRnTNdR9klnseeA/s640/Ethel%201-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl-mhTOmahxJ2Fmzw3OWl0DUkG54xSLYUfjaFl8xwC2Q6Pe9MkJKCxtsxJOm6vihoYd9GZM1_y-AxLdS57dLGth2QGr9cDb-emqRxzhQ9qYjkt_Mum4IJKwYebqefvdGOydpLUAjkIzV1ZnX0k-qa_8b1-MNvS3VJCjiHAJAujrx_iRnTNdR9klnseeA/s320/Ethel%201-23.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Ethel</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiPKtpX13sdETEY0xLFNKFAolRElgy0HaY-ILdEUOsdAppae7F1NlLAkkwOUdMkhH163oCqSKmzU6CVlUUzZ0k5xKVRAG5WwN0AYg6vGGMIZZYL5N-W15_Ov_eMQGrVp0cdEGFTA3EXAc66XsbG_8Fn0VIYxF0Q_MTHG-YeyDUdO2yfOG8LKp7--F2yA/s640/Joy%201-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiPKtpX13sdETEY0xLFNKFAolRElgy0HaY-ILdEUOsdAppae7F1NlLAkkwOUdMkhH163oCqSKmzU6CVlUUzZ0k5xKVRAG5WwN0AYg6vGGMIZZYL5N-W15_Ov_eMQGrVp0cdEGFTA3EXAc66XsbG_8Fn0VIYxF0Q_MTHG-YeyDUdO2yfOG8LKp7--F2yA/s320/Joy%201-23.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Joy</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvknQ57OtKYgkHRJfO_mOlh4ZX92TBxRMOerdjxUFtVFHatibNqs2lxIbBTudu12va_81e3graA4cYxJEfpmYusffwx2J4NcDCfDTlNTxUcTK7ERYQrk-4g9TrUrGWUtalfTlxYDbHfXTfZ0sBUSphDmL8ipTrM3jBPRhjSHRlswGl8PJpenwIjLmdHw/s640/Lucas%201-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvknQ57OtKYgkHRJfO_mOlh4ZX92TBxRMOerdjxUFtVFHatibNqs2lxIbBTudu12va_81e3graA4cYxJEfpmYusffwx2J4NcDCfDTlNTxUcTK7ERYQrk-4g9TrUrGWUtalfTlxYDbHfXTfZ0sBUSphDmL8ipTrM3jBPRhjSHRlswGl8PJpenwIjLmdHw/s320/Lucas%201-23.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Lucas</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsZDawakmxZ92CBeDVN_qz_zKSP8CnAQa8O_YJUBo6w6-STl7LFqdvgXdBpUiQ-4c-xEtBtKrlAOj32f-NbIDlfMdfyiwBgNkO5AWHAVXDnVQiG8nzmlkGRi6PXVjN0v2wxfs69YaHOluj4v2ubrH-pVhrPrq4ATbn1flpDRNvt8j66CA-FLDrG3cypQ/s640/Manny%201-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsZDawakmxZ92CBeDVN_qz_zKSP8CnAQa8O_YJUBo6w6-STl7LFqdvgXdBpUiQ-4c-xEtBtKrlAOj32f-NbIDlfMdfyiwBgNkO5AWHAVXDnVQiG8nzmlkGRi6PXVjN0v2wxfs69YaHOluj4v2ubrH-pVhrPrq4ATbn1flpDRNvt8j66CA-FLDrG3cypQ/s320/Manny%201-23.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Manny</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwFuGaAE-3h_eS6ZqinxImM9Wk61agvBTWtdBqxwI_cx0Bo9EKr7d1YdbYMHNZ6DOCpdRh0wllEyuonpV3t1NlhRw2_mo3pIubVzbJHq-Q5qVMvbUnovlAHUOU9mOH0RlfwOsL6KeF2MZyHH_O0GbFjzNynCCGka4KWM7nAeFzZxdBOCuDDWX9z0sSeQ/s640/Mark%201-23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwFuGaAE-3h_eS6ZqinxImM9Wk61agvBTWtdBqxwI_cx0Bo9EKr7d1YdbYMHNZ6DOCpdRh0wllEyuonpV3t1NlhRw2_mo3pIubVzbJHq-Q5qVMvbUnovlAHUOU9mOH0RlfwOsL6KeF2MZyHH_O0GbFjzNynCCGka4KWM7nAeFzZxdBOCuDDWX9z0sSeQ/s320/Mark%201-23.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Mark</div><p><b>For ministry: </b>We are holding a Champs graduation this coming Saturday to complete this current program.

Today the group visited Destiny School in Matero Industrial compound to practice evangelism and teaching in the classrooms. The Champs were warmly received and everyone had a blast. Students asked many questions, and quite a large group of students asked to receive Christ as their Lord and Savior. Destiny School is attached to a Zambian church and they will be following up with the students.<p></p><p>Please pray for all the students as well as our Champs!</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiKhIeqSDrwz7WMP6JWBVgQfCVCnSFSUoy6y-n1fbZrFtuX1a4CaWrILs13Q0fBDc3lMxq1yvgUJeADhghXGc71HjnN20QjcAFnG_Gm4oWfy3lfblqzJzM--PAUw6gLn6cG_nbb5zBVVjlzNHGgNEkqryeORbywhdJLFhCyfAVlz4wAss0_5ZvGwKisnA" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiKhIeqSDrwz7WMP6JWBVgQfCVCnSFSUoy6y-n1fbZrFtuX1a4CaWrILs13Q0fBDc3lMxq1yvgUJeADhghXGc71HjnN20QjcAFnG_Gm4oWfy3lfblqzJzM--PAUw6gLn6cG_nbb5zBVVjlzNHGgNEkqryeORbywhdJLFhCyfAVlz4wAss0_5ZvGwKisnA=w400-h300" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiTi-cNK3rZ5FeUODpN6JTW5ta87E9QzzPPUGjI6pOILiqF2YlUx2v_QvTV1tweKh3-cMaE7L24SbvpqhVyvZUHDvka7sJkqw7qHTp7nUmDtrME9oTzw8M7VCNxtbiSN0pXMLj4EyhWmmnbTDos9nozbuSbi51bz6ztFWluhF90S3NQYI3tFLzpSezZLQ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhe01GThvlF8PioFKWnljBI-gvmmfUlh4kXinVIMAjUjt48_zf9q0mSj8ERoC0ajtnp_iDBWCc3tsXXBQvJY1wTl3pVqX7o6lHo6iQsjiCIjFsm6CW9wzHdeqhvsVjJiVF4r_Ps-iQ8NE12hWw57Nsfkoo-XdzriBKukgvJip1LcLNUTR-rXj8aweB8Zw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhe01GThvlF8PioFKWnljBI-gvmmfUlh4kXinVIMAjUjt48_zf9q0mSj8ERoC0ajtnp_iDBWCc3tsXXBQvJY1wTl3pVqX7o6lHo6iQsjiCIjFsm6CW9wzHdeqhvsVjJiVF4r_Ps-iQ8NE12hWw57Nsfkoo-XdzriBKukgvJip1LcLNUTR-rXj8aweB8Zw" width="640" /></a></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjwLbTZboj6F969SmaiF0q_pZlUU1BnKxBDJDoW0ypujUoFj0LSQGLJ0aN5Jc-Y_s1rRGzoPC65crfaKW_8MY47ZhN1pWk31jA0znn3VphPyLLR-mwBDP8TnkvcdhVU1ylkQVOfH5RtLPqlWJSUHpr4qQaNKjQOxvJ7xIVvMtzMoN6A12Xu8HetkwL1zw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjwLbTZboj6F969SmaiF0q_pZlUU1BnKxBDJDoW0ypujUoFj0LSQGLJ0aN5Jc-Y_s1rRGzoPC65crfaKW_8MY47ZhN1pWk31jA0znn3VphPyLLR-mwBDP8TnkvcdhVU1ylkQVOfH5RtLPqlWJSUHpr4qQaNKjQOxvJ7xIVvMtzMoN6A12Xu8HetkwL1zw=w400-h300" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi-3_ZNtR9KCU6KhqgBLim40XYEwmyvtod6f711X-naj1zZd3WOmB407qB7g2pQ3drfkxRYZZmno8xsmnj_z9NWU8O5wTz4iZCQstEsj1jV4YaMfLcTQVQRqmgDs9C6onGRLhywAIKwYnMPxjuVsMFWnyn8tPkPEIdDn0-h3KzrHESVnWTW_qhROv5inQ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi-3_ZNtR9KCU6KhqgBLim40XYEwmyvtod6f711X-naj1zZd3WOmB407qB7g2pQ3drfkxRYZZmno8xsmnj_z9NWU8O5wTz4iZCQstEsj1jV4YaMfLcTQVQRqmgDs9C6onGRLhywAIKwYnMPxjuVsMFWnyn8tPkPEIdDn0-h3KzrHESVnWTW_qhROv5inQ=w480-h640" width="480" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p>The Huckaby Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09232089434507611710noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744324852401961801.post-11939944907459669672022-09-20T03:26:00.002-07:002022-09-20T03:26:31.729-07:00Getting Back in the Saddle Again<p>We really thank God for bringing us safely to Lusaka, Zambia for our fifth term of service with ACTION Zambia. Not only did our family and luggage all arrive safely, but we had a young lady from our sending church (Ellie Schwab) also traveling to Zambia along with us and the trip went very smoothly for her as well. We were met by friends and Ciyanjano staff at the airport and again at Ciyanjano.

Thank you, everyone, for making that day so special.<div><br /></div><div>Of course we also want to say THANK YOU again to all of our family and friends back in the good old USA who made our furlough so incredible. What you all did for us is truly touching and amazing and we are so grateful for that time. It really helped us to be ready to get back in the saddle again!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Since arriving in Lusaka we have been unpacking and organizing our home, meeting with people around Ciyanjano and visiting around our neighborhood, and just catching up in general on sleep and maintenance issues around the house. We are feeling much more settled in already -- please pray for us to continue to settle in well!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>It was especially fun to visit with our current Champs group and the teen girl Bible study. We are so proud of our leaders who kept up these programs in our absence and have done a marvelous job. The teen girls group has really grown with Aunty Judy and Aunty Nkumbu leading and the girls welcomed the ladies in our family back to Bible study with a praise song.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRN4DcuHjznNVSTAf7qDox0rcsX85H7QD1phAweKlQrDKH7l3Hy405nUuRFnBczf3Q3A65mckjufueVI4UhUEaee59LTDxjoGJWtN5kwmpiJGioQL70oBvD2LM1jJtuv5XzhpoZU7CGBlIokCs3hdMu76dXnGSF_5q2EdOkqDQUxlscIIF6zBdTFAY-A/s640/teen%20girls%20study%202022.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRN4DcuHjznNVSTAf7qDox0rcsX85H7QD1phAweKlQrDKH7l3Hy405nUuRFnBczf3Q3A65mckjufueVI4UhUEaee59LTDxjoGJWtN5kwmpiJGioQL70oBvD2LM1jJtuv5XzhpoZU7CGBlIokCs3hdMu76dXnGSF_5q2EdOkqDQUxlscIIF6zBdTFAY-A/w391-h300/teen%20girls%20study%202022.jpg" width="391" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw7JLBuAjBjl5QZ28hX3XqrrZqu-GTMRW5BNuA7OSsyHbivdj2SgJKkYhsZU1KNjqVJNI6bHg6ozgjA35dfKqveWjesWsCFYYU-0j9utc8PHN1hW5KAgaQ4QFrUBvlFP5_gYyxtpgAX5EurNUz0Hk6YciHEu80zdWhGyH6Oc7YVHLYvOpCgNAOpytnbg/s640/teen%20girls%20study%202%202022.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw7JLBuAjBjl5QZ28hX3XqrrZqu-GTMRW5BNuA7OSsyHbivdj2SgJKkYhsZU1KNjqVJNI6bHg6ozgjA35dfKqveWjesWsCFYYU-0j9utc8PHN1hW5KAgaQ4QFrUBvlFP5_gYyxtpgAX5EurNUz0Hk6YciHEu80zdWhGyH6Oc7YVHLYvOpCgNAOpytnbg/w400-h300/teen%20girls%20study%202%202022.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /></div><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0 0 0 40px; padding: 0px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A unique thing about our return this time is that we have Ellie staying with us.

We are trusting the Lord to provide for our ministry and family needs, and of course He does that through YOU --the Church! We have had a few generous gifts: $3500 toward the Ciyanjano General Fund, $800 toward our Ciyanjano Reading Room, and funds that helped us ship hundreds of Bibles and tracts to Lusaka as well as money to help with our family's expenses here. Thank you so much to these donors that have already given.

Our goal is to raise $5000 to cover costs for the next 3 years.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Outreaches - AZ performs all kinds of gospel outreach in urban and rural areas.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Camping Ministry - We love to hold follow-up camps after doing different kinds of outreach. Our goal is to raise $3000 to help cover our camping costs.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Feeding Programs are an important ministry in Zambia and we love providing meals for children because malnutrition is a huge problem. Our goal is to raise $6000 or more for our current feeding programs.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Ciyanjano Camp - This beautiful camping and conference centre is such a vital ministry for the churches in the slums. Due to Covid and less funds, we have a lot of maintenance and freshening up that needs to happen on the property. Consider helping us reach our fundraising goal of $20,000 for Ciyanjano’s general fund for the next 3 years - we need to raise $16,500 more.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">ACTION Pastors College (APC) - Training for pastors in Lusaka and beyond is another ministry that is close to our hearts and so important. Our current class is going strong. We would love to add 5 more monthly donors of $50 each for this ministry, committing for the next 3 years. </li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Reading Room - Our team has seen over and over again how our reading and study room at Ciyanjano has been such a blessing to students, teachers, and pastors. Help us keep this little treasure stocked up and staffed! We’re praying for $2000 for this project - we need $1200 more.</li></ul><p style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br /></p><p style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">HUCKABY FAMILY NEEDS</p><p style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">God has always taken such good care of our family. Many of you have given generously to important projects over the years like our vehicles, solar power, etc. Also, many of you have faithfully given monthly to cover our monthly budget for food, medical, diesel, internet, etc. We want to praise Jesus for all of you and say THANK YOU SO MUCH. We know it’s not easy. We always praise God for you. Thank you for your generosity, your love, and your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. The following are upcoming personal needs for our family.</p><ul style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 12px;"><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">We have recently purchased home-schooling materials for Emmanuel, Mark, and Joy to continue school at home with Tricia for 2023 and 2024. We have been praying about sending Ethel and Lucas to a specific weekly boarding school just outside of Lusaka for grades 10, 11, and 12 beginning in 2023 so that they can graduate with the British school system. The Lord has been confirming that this would be a healthy choice. We are selling a little piece of property that we purchased years ago to secure $10,000 per year for 3 years to contribute to the costs of the school, but that only covers a third of the total. We need to raise $18,000 more per year for 3 years.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">At our house we eat a lot of eggs and have always kept layers. We’d like to raise $1000 for a new, larger chicken coop and 20 fresh layers.</li><li style="font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Please consider becoming a monthly donor!

We are so thankful that God is so good and that He is sovereign. It’s hard for missionaries to leave their ministries, friends, and family during “home” assignment.

If not, you can skip down to our Family Needs section. Despite Covid ministry has continued and we have a wide range of needs and fundraising goals. Please look them over and prayerfully consider if/how you can help with the following goals:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Ciyanjano Champions for Children is one of our favourite programs and is going on now with a new group of youths being discipled - we call them the Champs. Our goal is to raise $5000 to cover costs for the next 3 years.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Outreaches - AZ performs all kinds of gospel outreach in urban and rural areas.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Camping Ministry - We love to hold follow-up camps after doing different kinds of outreach. Our goal is to raise $3000 to help cover our camping costs.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Feeding Programs are an important ministry in Zambia and we love providing meals for children because malnutrition is a huge problem. Our goal is to raise $6000 or more for our current feeding programs.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Ciyanjano Camp - This beautiful camping and conference centre is such a vital ministry for the churches in the slums. Due to Covid and less funds, we have a lot of maintenance and freshening up that needs to happen on the property. Consider helping us reach our fundraising goal of $20,000 for Ciyanjano’s general fund for the next 3 years.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">ACTION Pastors College (APC) - Training for pastors in Lusaka and beyond is another ministry that is close to our hearts and so important. Our current class is going strong. We would love to add 5 more monthly donors of $50 each for this ministry, committing for the next 3 years. </span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">Reading Room - Our team has seen over and over again how our reading and study room at Ciyanjano has been such a blessing to students, teachers, and pastors. Help us keep this little treasure stocked up and staffed! We’re praying for $2000 for this project.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">MINISTRY MATERIALS - If you are interested in making a physical donation of some kind, we are collecting new Christian t-shirts as gifts for our team and their families, and new or very gently used BIBLES (NIV, ESV, NLT primarily). Also, we are looking for 10 gently used copies of the book Purpose-Driven Life and 12 gently used copies of the 5 Love Languages.</span></li>

Many of you have given generously to important projects over the years like our vehicles, solar power, etc. Also, many of you have faithfully given monthly to cover our monthly budget for food, medical, diesel, internet, etc. We want to praise Jesus for all of you and say THANK YOU SO MUCH. We know it’s not easy. We always praise God for you. Thank you for your generosity, your love, and your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. The following are upcoming personal needs for our family.</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">We have recently purchased home-schooling materials for Emmanuel, Mark, and Joy to continue school at home with Tricia for 2023 and 2024. We have been praying about sending Ethel and Lucas to a specific weekly boarding school just outside of Lusaka for grades 10, 11, and 12 beginning in 2023 so that they can graduate with the British school system. The Lord has been confirming that this would be a healthy choice. We are selling a little piece of property that we purchased years ago to secure $10,000 per year for 3 years to contribute to the costs of the school, but that only covers a third of the total. We need to raise $18,000 more per year for 3 years.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">At our house we eat a lot of eggs and have always kept layers. We’d like to raise $1000 for a new, larger chicken coop and 20 fresh layers.</span></li>
<li style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; font-family: "Big Caslon"; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-kerning: none;">You all know that prices are rising around the world for food supplies and fuel. If you are a regular monthly donor, would you consider raising your monthly donation by $10 a month? Or if you have never given before, would you consider signing on as a monthly donor for $10 per month to help us with rising costs?</span></li>

Camp Ciyanjano, ACTION Pastors College (APC), the Reading Room, feeding programs, and CHAMPS youth discipleship program have all been active during the first quarter of the year and we are excited to see what God has planned.</p><p>Kelly continues to serve as AZ Director, supervising the ministries and handling administration along with our accountant. Jailos Sakala continues as Facility Manager at Ciyanjano. AZ welcomed Pastor Frederik Bwalya as a new missionary recently, and he is continuing his work with APC. Additionally, Fred and his family are helping out at Ciyanjano while the Huckaby family is on furlough...</p><p>Which brings me to a furlough update. All seven Zambia Huckabys traveled to Texas on April 4th and after a long, long, long trip we settled into a little cottage at the Alto Frio Baptist Encampment in Leakey, Texas. We really thank God for a safe trip and a very warm welcome.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHDXidBOSE-kIJ3qBzFBtRipbUQUG1CR-4RIH0OPqaWs-Puk24Cj7LNJXpyyJoAVaPwdh-nG17hotikKL8AoPijSTZvEmlmSGrb7ECne5mY8VC-aembm7VTbQCqy4as6PGM_UPMauDnOLkwAZ9CHbHJoKGErwMqD3LtWhHcZcFhPq4kzO7bH4wYkiNIA/s640/AFBE%20front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHDXidBOSE-kIJ3qBzFBtRipbUQUG1CR-4RIH0OPqaWs-Puk24Cj7LNJXpyyJoAVaPwdh-nG17hotikKL8AoPijSTZvEmlmSGrb7ECne5mY8VC-aembm7VTbQCqy4as6PGM_UPMauDnOLkwAZ9CHbHJoKGErwMqD3LtWhHcZcFhPq4kzO7bH4wYkiNIA/w400-h300/AFBE%20front.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Alto Frio Baptist Encampment from the front.

We haven't seen any cases of this variant ourselves, but the government has issued new regulations again. What does that mean for us and this ministry?</p><p>Well... we are just taking things one day at a time and trying to be mentally and spiritually ready for anything. As Christians, we are supposed to be ready to share the reason for the hope that we have in Jesus - in season and out of season - whatever season. This year we have tried to take advantage of any ministry opportunities while at the same time respecting the wishes of the government and our neighbors. We will finish out this year in that same way.</p><p>Thankfully, we are able to do so much ministry outside. Our group of youths, the Champs, that Kelly has been discipling, finished their program with only a bit of a delay and were able to graduate. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuyMODs9_DvX1FKozIVSIcvQsLGhX0eJarPocdsRqm3zrcbhgRoY6_eYlP4_4uGejKBMyqt5m8NEnRa9zfPwEFInnjLgNtMdiYleiNleg_UgDTahuYZ0D4FGwQ8N3ZXvxFaQbV8JtbvsOR/s4032/Champs+Class+2021.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="368" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuyMODs9_DvX1FKozIVSIcvQsLGhX0eJarPocdsRqm3zrcbhgRoY6_eYlP4_4uGejKBMyqt5m8NEnRa9zfPwEFInnjLgNtMdiYleiNleg_UgDTahuYZ0D4FGwQ8N3ZXvxFaQbV8JtbvsOR/w491-h368/Champs+Class+2021.jpg" width="491" /></a></div><p>Tricia's Bible study for teen girls is stable at around 16 girls and they have continued to meet outside.

Feeding programs have continued and are still a much-needed blessing to many children in our area. The chigayo (maize mill) has continued to run and is a blessing to our community as well as our public water tap. Camp Ciyanjano has been able to host a few groups and camps, and we are thankful for that. A few of our Champs spearheaded a youth camp just recently and it was well done.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg12ykfxGTE2PdmSjGIrQ8HOvjJ-43N8riUVcrzQRTv6Zoz7dB3NYPsTvCGixiYfCQCHnOq4Zj6GRkftAO6Uk8gPTaCKNbZq2_CdKyyfDi-As2guHa_3ly5rua0bYAPSdYDUM8QSlXfdxGM/s1774/Youth+Camp+2021.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1330" data-original-width="1774" height="377" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg12ykfxGTE2PdmSjGIrQ8HOvjJ-43N8riUVcrzQRTv6Zoz7dB3NYPsTvCGixiYfCQCHnOq4Zj6GRkftAO6Uk8gPTaCKNbZq2_CdKyyfDi-As2guHa_3ly5rua0bYAPSdYDUM8QSlXfdxGM/w502-h377/Youth+Camp+2021.jpg" width="502" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Our ACTION Pastors' College finished their first year of training.

These pastors have been working for three years to complete the coursework needed to graduate and there was much celebrating and cheer. These pastors will still need to complete one more intensive course next year with Pastor Tracy Singleton in order to officially graduate from ACTION Pastors College. We thank God for His faithfulness and causing these pastors to persevere especially through 2020. We are most thankful for our lecturers and colleagues in ministry, Frederick Bwalya, Cassius Silumande, and Emile Masabarakiza, along with many visitors who have joined Pastor Tracy over the past three years to help them get the best education in Biblical training, preaching and teaching and pastoring. Pray for these pastors as they go out into the world with their diplomas - that they will see this as a new beginning in their ministries. May they faithfully preach the Gospel, make disciples and give all glory to God. Thank you Jesus!

Pray for God's will to be done in our planning! We need wisdom as we prepare the ministry proposals and budgets for the next two years. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">2. Please pray for the Huckaby kids to have a good attitude about doing school at home and to give their best. Pray for Tricia to stay focused, committed, faithful, and creative/zealous.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">3. Pray for good health and protection over us, especially for Kelly - energy and good habits.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">4. Our former sending church, Oikos, was very thoughtful in providing for us as the church disbanded and we became members and missionaries at Communion Church in Mt. Vernon, Washington. Soon, however, we will be facing a gap in our budget. Please pray that more monthly donors will join our support team. We need financial support for our family and also for the ministries of ACTION Zambia.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia;">5.

Ciyanjano was closed for several months. We applied to the Ministry of Health to reopen the camp so that we could keep our Bible studies and discipleship groups. Our first two applications were denied but after discussing the situation with the ACTION Zambia Board, we decided to apply to just reopen our programs and not the whole camp. Ciyanjano Manager, Jailos Sakala and AZ’s Deputy Director John Chitambo jumped through the hoops and we got permission to reopen - not just our programs but the camp and the Ripley Centre as well. Of course with the increase in cases in Lusaka and the inability of churches to hold camps and keep the requirements set by the MoH, we don’t plan on having any camps or teams for the rest of the year. Due to the lack of income for Ciyanjano we’ve had to cut back to the very minimum of staff. This has been a difficult time for Zambians and we don’t see things getting better anytime soon.</span></p>

Please pray for those girls, that they would engage with God’s Word and pray for Tricia as she leads. On Saturdays, we have been meeting with a different couple each week from the Ciyanjano/AZ family to go through the video study on <i>“The Meaning of Marriage”</i> by Tim Keller. We hope to bring all 10 couples together every Saturday after we get a chance to meet one on one with everyone. </span></p>

This is a really encouraging time of carefully reading and studying through this epistle. There is so much in this letter and the guys have a lot of great questions. To be prepared for the weekly 3+ hour study, I’ve been studying 1 Corinthians by listening to a variety of material including preaching and articles from Desiring God and using a book on 1 Corinthians from “<i>The Ultimate Bible Commentary</i>” which is super cheap series on Amazon for Kindle and has the commentary on 1 Corinthians</span><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">from Barnes, Calvin, Clarke, Henry, Spurgeon and Wesley.</span></p>

Right now he is “taking” a course on History of Christianity 1 and Into to Pastoral & Theological Studies.

What a life it has been. We really thank God that He has seen us through these years of ups and downs. We've trusted in Jesus Christ our Lord to be our savior, protector, provider, friend, counselor, brother, teacher, comforter, and more, and He has been faithful. God has expanded his family and God has expanded ours - physically, metaphorically, spiritually... gastronomically.<br />

We've happily started up Champs again with a third group, though we are taking health precautions. The group meets outside and tries to keep some social distance. We've also set up hand-washing stations around the property and handed out masks.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We are also so glad to re-open our Ciyanjano Reading Room a few times a week. We've limited the number of people, but at least a handful of folks can study a time and we were able to do a lot of re-organizing and cleaning while we were closed. The place is looking great!<br />
<br />
As a family, we would like to give special thanks to all of you who have prayed and given over the years - we appreciate your support and love so much!!!! God bless you guys. Cheers to another 10 years!<br />

<br />
We enjoyed this movie so much and really wanted to recommend it. The movie is based on a true story that took place in Malawi, which is Zambia's next-door neighbor and very similar in SO many ways. So, if you haven't yet visited us in Zambia watching this movie will give you a little glimpse into a lot of different aspects of our life. We are less "out in the bush" than the village depicted in the film, but not by much. One of the super fun things about The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind is that the people speak Chichewa, which is one of the local languages commonly spoken in Lusaka. Your ears will really feast on the language often used around Ciyanjano and around Lusaka.<br />
<br />
We found ourselves seeing TIA or "This is Africa" moments that really struck us as informative and interesting. Keep your eyes out for the ways religion is practiced. The father's conversion to Christianity isn't mentioned in the movie, so if you are interested in more details about that, it's in the book. The movie is rated 16+ on Netflix, but our 10-year-old watched it with us and we didn't see any problems with that.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

We are excited for the pastors to complete their studies this year with Pastor Tracy Singleton and many other lecturers. Pastor Tracy has been visiting each term to continue this program while based in the States; at the end of the year we will graduate this class and turn the program over to our Zambian lecturers to begin a new class outside of ACTION Zambia's programs - it's wonderful that the program will continue under Zambia leadership.<br />
<br />
We had a great time with Pastor Tracy today and special guest, Pastor John Farren from ACTION UK. We really thank God for the dedication of Pastor Tracy (and wife, Karen) over the years, along with all of the Zambian pastors: Frederick Bwalya, Cassius Silumande, Wozifera Ngoma, Emile Masabarakiza and more. Please pray for all the pastors as they attend class over the next two weeks. Kelly will be teaching on Friday the 6th about Islam and outreach to our Muslim neighbors - please pray for him!<br />

<br />
While many ministries and missions slow down during December and January, here at ACTION Zambia we seem to get busier and busier! We've recently had two CROSS graduations, two children's outreaches with the Champs at a local orphanage, loads of meetings, 22 interviews with new Champs, and excepted 20 new young leaders (our biggest cohort yet!), we have contracts to write, ministry budgets and proposals to create, and I officiated my first wedding for one of Champ graduates, hosted a team from YWAM (in partnership with ACTION South Africa) to do community outreaches with children, worked at local churches and community schools with kids and did street evangelism with our Champs and Ciyanjano staff, started our new Champs discipleship group all while surviving the ups and downs of ministry and bureaucracy.<br />

Any question you ask someone will receive the same answer: <br />
How are you? HOT<br />
How is home? HOT<br />
How is the day? HOT<br />
How was school? HOT<br />
<br />
Here are a few pictures to give you an idea of how things are looking around Ciyanjano. Please pray for us because, in case you weren't paying attention, we are HOT. Also, we've had an enormous amount of sickness in the house and around the city... flu, colds, diarrhea, and we even heard of a friend from church with Typhoid. I'm sure you can imagine that all these things are much harder to cope with when you are hot and dehydrated. Pray!!!! The Lord is our refuge. Pray that he will use this hot weather to bring BIG GOOD Rain this year.<br />

We know that God has given us a special love for the country and people of Zambia, and we are privileged to be here. Special thanks to all of you that have prayed for our time back in the States and for our time now back on the field.</span></span><br />
