“Ask and you will receive and your joy will be complete.”

John 16:24

Dear Family and Friends

Something...was ... Stolen...from me!

Have you ever felt like something is missing, but you don’t quite know what it is. You know it is gone, you can feel it! I have known that feeling for some months now. It became my friend, reminding me each new day that I have been robbed of something. It took me a while to discover what it was. And then it dawned on me, it was my joy - and it was completely gone! The past year has been so stressful, so painful, and so terrible that I stopped enjoying our children. Stopped appreciating what I have and the wonderful place where we live. I took my eyes off the Lord during a flood of difficulties and felt myself drowning under the strain. Where I usually loved life and looked forwards to each new day – I felt myself getting annoyed and irritated at the smallest of things. A friend advised me to get some time-out, basically to have a break – and get some good time in with the Lord. That is not easy as a full time mom, living where we do, not having anywhere to go to get some much needed time alone. Our home is a very busy place with loads of visitors and activities continually happening in a constant stream. Then God provided us with a solution, a place where our family could go and recover from a difficult year. Our children needed their happy mom back; Grant needed his cheerful wife to surface out of the storm. We needed time as a family, to just laugh, play and enjoy each other. Eleven years on the mission field with many ups and downs, many hardships and stresses, we needed a time-out! Not to do deputation, not to speak at churches, not to do ministry or fix the car or do admin etc. Just some time to recover.

God has given us this time. A friend, who runs a lodge here on Lake Tanganyika in Zambia, asked us if we wanted to babysit the Lodge for her while she goes on leave. There are no guests here, no bookings for November. Our mission board agreed and we have had the time of rest that has been so needed. While we still do school with the kids, we have a cook to do all the cooking, a cleaner who refuses to let us clean up, she even complains if we make the beds. God is wonderful. He has provided for us in a way we never dreamed of. We can relax, spend time with Him and enjoy our children and each other. What a special time – we are not taking it for Granted.

A Time to Live... A Time to die

Towards the end of September, we got news that my dad was very sick and in hospital, and that we should come to Cape Town if we wanted to see him again. He was diagnosed with Asbestos Disease and was getting worse daily. We raced down to Cape Town hoping to see him, only to discover that he had died two days before we arrived while we were still on the road. It was a record 5 day drive down – but still not fast enough. It was heartbreaking to discover that we did not make it to see him one last time. It was thrilling, however, to hear that my mom lead him to Christ 10 minutes before he died. She had no idea he was going to die that day.

While in Cape Town, Grant was able to redo the engine on our vehicle. It was in bad need of an overhaul and the long 5 day drive to Cape Town put the engine on its last legs. Praise the Lord for a practical husband, who saves us so much money with his practical abilities. By redoing the engine himself, he saved so much money. God provided a wonderful workshop through a farmer in Grabouw, who also financially helped with the costs of engineering work that needed doing on the engine.

We lose our Life Jackets

Part of Grants ministry is teaching in a village right next to the Lodge we are staying in. The people asked him to come teach there. We are still trying to get the boat going again after discovering a problem with the gear box. We have a bag of life jackets we use when on the boat as the lake can be rough at times and because Grant has a strict policy of all on the water must wear life jackets. Unfortunately, the bag fell off the roof on a trip to the lake and we lost them all. We did not know they were missing till we got to the dock. As soon as we discovered it we decided to drive back up the mountain to see if we could find them, but I had locked the keys in the car!! It took 40 minutes to break into our car, and by that time the bag was gone. So, if you know anyone with any life jackets that they don’t use please let us know. We lost eight of them. At the moment our friend here at the lodge fetches us in their boat and we just pay the fuel costs for Grant’s once a month trip across to the village to teach.

Thanks for your encouragement, your prayers and support of our  ministry here. We pray God’s blessing on you as we get to the end of the year and look forward to a new year ahead. Please continue to pray for us for:

Prayer Needs:

· New Life jackets

· For the spares needed on the boat

· For God’s strength for us as a family

· For renewed joy in the Lord

· For Lorna at Bible College

· School books for next year

Praise the Lord for:

· My Dad’s salvation

· For a time of rest

· That our vehicle is going well again

· His faithfulness to us during a difficult year

God bless.

August/September

“God’s call to a task includes His strength to complete it.”

Dear Family and Friends

I am sometimes overwhelmed by the amount of tasks we have to get done in a day. The above quote is really what gives me strength to continue in our work here for the Lord. He has called us here and knowing that gives us the strength to continue in what he has called us to do – that is what keeps us going.

We have had a month full of wonderful visitors. John and Nikki Bowmer from Cape Town came and spent the month of August with us. John’s days were full of ministry while Nikki spent her days washing dishes, doing pre-school with Olivia, helping the girls with their music and making bread etc. She was a huge help to me and great fellowship. Although I am sure our noisy family was a huge adjustment for her. We are so grateful they made the effort to come visit us.

(Note the snake Joel is holding in the picture on the left- don’t worry - it was dead – it was killed on the college land near the kitchen)

At the moment, we have Greg Phillips here from Cape Town. He will be the guest speaker at our college graduation on Saturday and will also be preaching at our local Baptist Church. We are really privileged to have him here with us.

New Friends – Great Fellowship!

A new Southern Baptist Missionary family has also moved into Mbala. They are a truly wonderful family and it is so great for our children to have new friends. The Schwarz’s have four children, three boys and a girl. The bonds of friendship have already been tied. Steve and Rita are wonderful fellowship for both Grant and I. They have come with many talents that we do not have, and we can already see that they are going to do a great work here in Mbala.

Steve, Rita and kids joined us at the Baptist Convention Conference. It is held out in the bush where they set up a temporary camp and have days full of fellowship and meetings. John and Grant preached at the conference, while we all went out just for the Sunday service. We all sat on a grass mat and ate the food that they had prepared for us for lunch. It was a long day for the kids as we only ate around 3pm – but a good time was had by all.

It is great seeing our lives through the eyes of others. We often find ourselves with a live pig or chicken in our car. We no longer find the roads bad or are disturbed by things that happen around us. We are so used to the way of life here now. So when others come and laugh at things we do or have to go through it is always funny to take a fresh view of our lives here.

Dog Bites, Raw Ankles and a Stuck Calf

I was so blessed to have Nikki here when we had some medical emergencies to deal with. Our neighbour’s little boy got his ankle stuck in a bicycle’s spokes which left it with a large, raw gash. It was bleeding heavily and as usual we were called upon to help. Thankfully Nikki is unfazed by such things and helped me to deal with it. While Joseph was being nursed, our dog bit a young lady, Ruth, who is helping me by “plucking” our broiler chickens that we grew and are selling for the college fund. She got bitten right on her shin and did not want to go to the hospital, so she got in the cue for doctoring! Nikki took the little boy down to our hospital and got to spend some time there as they helped fix him up. Both Joseph and Ruth are doing fine.

Our prize cow, Lucy, went into Labour and did not seem to get anywhere. The calf’s hoofs stuck out for hours and she never got any further. We soon realised that we had a challenge on our hands. Steve Schwartz has quite a bit of vet training so he came out and delivered the calf. He had to get his whole arm inside the cow to turn the calf’s head into the correct position. Grant helped “catch” the calf as she came out. We praise the Lord for Steve’s talents and for bringing such a humble, gentle man of God to work for Him right here in Mbala. Both cow and calf are doing well. We named the calf “Miracle”. If not for Steve’s expertise we might have lost both mom and baby!

The Kids

The kids are all doing great. While most in Zambia are on School Holidays, we are still doing school. They are always busy with lots of activities. The girls have made an “outside” kitchen behind the pagoda in my garden. They cook and clean and play there for hours. Luke also enjoys it out there, playing in the mud with all their bottles and stuff! He is definitely going to be an over-stimulated kid with all the attention he gets from his siblings. He is usually in the thick of things and is chuffed to now be able to sit by himself on the bench at the kitchen table and eat his food with the “big kids”!

While Dad’s Away...

While Grant went down to Lusaka to take John and Nikki back to the airport and fetch Greg – it all began to happen here! It always does when Grant is not around. I got very sick and had 7 kids to look after as I also had another missionary family’s boy here for the weekend and Friday! Fortunately, our kids took over and cooked and did the necessary and basically had a free reign of the house!! (Scary actually) Joel, who had just sharpened his penknife, had to cut something he was making and the knife slipped and he slit his wrist in the process. He came in my room with it all cleaned and bandaged up. I told him to show me the wound so he unravelled the bandage and I saw a gaping wound that needed stitches. I was so grateful that he had not cut a main vein! We closed it with “Aunty Di’s” supply of stitch plaster (I did have the super glue close by...) and it has healed well.

Later that evening, Hope also had an accident and managed to get a wood board fling up and smack her in the face (like as “punch” as Joel put it!) She ran into my room screaming; with blood pouring out everywhere! Well, just another day in the Schaefer house while dad was away...

Praise God For:
· John and Nikki Bowmer and the work they were able to do while up here
· For the various conferences and Bible school Grant and John were able to teach at this past month
· For God’s continuous provision
· For protecting Joel from what could have be a very bad accident
· For the Schwarz family

Please Pray for:
· Grant as we prepare for another graduation of students on the 5th of September.
· For Greg Phillips from Cape Town who is with us and will travel to Zimbabwe from here to do further teaching
· For the protection of our children and ourselves from disease etc.
· For the Swartz family as they adjust to life here in Mbala (they are from America)

Thanks for your encouragement, your prayers and support of our ministry here.

God bless.

“The closer you are to God, the more you will have a heart for people.”

Dear Family and Friends

Although the past 12 months have been a fantastic year of ministry, one of the busiest and best we have had, it has also been a very stressful time for us. We have had a lot of added emotional stress and pressure, which has left us both drained and quite stressed out. I can tell that it has affected our relationship with our children and we both felt that we need to stick our heads out up above the water! For me, it is hard not having time-out as a mother where I can just sit and catch my breath for a time. So, I headed down to Cape Town with my Austrian Friend Uli and little Luke, to have a little time out. We were there only 6 days, but it was a break that I really needed and it gave me time to reflect on life a bit and have a change of pace.

Grant took the kids camping and was also able to have a lot of fun with the kids and have a much needed time-out from life!

One great thing that has happened this month is that the terrible road to our house has been graded by the road works company that is re-doing the Mbala/Kasama road. They asked us if they could store some of their diesel tanks on our farm and would grade the road for us. We now have a wonderful road to our house!
Lorna, who has been down in Cape Town for the past 3 and half months will not be coming back to Mbala. She has decided to go study at Bible College for one year. So, we are looking for someone who would be interested in starting the resource centre and possibly helping us with the kids Math.

More “Charley” Stories

For those of you who enjoyed the Charley and the chicken giblet story, here is another one for you. She was outside helping to milk our very feisty cow “Mother Lucy”. But she was pulling a little too hard on the cow’s teat so the cow got very cross and kicked her. She landed slap bang in the middle of cow poop and mud. She was covered with it. She started to shout and tell the cow that she was a “very naughty cow” and then ran off to the nearest tap, washed the mud and poop off and headed straight back for the milking stall and carried on milking. Charley is one of those little girls that’s always making us laugh and she truly is a real character! That same cow once chased me around our yard. I had to dive into a flower bed to hide and get away from her. The only time I will go near her is if there is a fence between us. She is not a “real” milking cow that is placid and will just stand quietly waiting to be milked. She is a feisty mama, but she does give us a lot of creamy milk!

Schaefer Coffee…

Grant loves his one cup of good “real” coffee per day. We have got quite a few coffee trees that we have planted here on our little farm. One of the trees is a magnificent tree. It is just by our front door and is producing a very nice crop this year. Grant recons that the lavender growing next to the tree has protected it from disease etc. The kids and my jobs are to pick the ripe cherries and take the process up until roasting. Then Grant roasts the beans himself just the way he likes it. It is quite fun to pick the cherries and squeeze out the raw bean. I hardly drink coffee anymore, so we are making plans to crow some tea. A friend of ours has organized us some tea bushes from Malawi, so now I plan to make my own green tea.

Always “Hope” for the best

For some time now Hope has wanted her own little space. Sharing a room with two little sisters, one of whom is a real junk collector, can be a challenge for her. She has been asking for a long time if we could make her an “attic in their room where she could have her bed and her things. Part of her school language lessons one day was to write a story of how she would like to redecorate her room. I told her to just pretend that she had her own room and then write about how she would like it to look. After she finished, she ended the story with “dream on Hope”! So we decided to make her a loft like she has always dreamed of having. We get off cuts of wood here for real cheap, so we have finally been able to give her a little space of her own. It has also made the girls room have a lot more space with only 2 beds being on the “ground level” instead of three!

Hope has been doing great in Grant’s Wednesday evening Bible classes. In a recent test she beat Joel and Friday by getting 100% for the test! The boys are now out to try and beat her or get 100% on their next test!

Praise the Lord for:
· Our new road
· Bringing Grant back safely
· For all the ministry opportunities Grant has
· For the time I was able to have in Cape Town


Please Pray for:
· Strength for Grant to continue with the on-going ministry
· For wisdom and strength to deal with some personal issues and stresses
· For the various Bible School weeks that are coming up
· For patience and wisdom in home-schooling

Thanks for your encouragement, your prayers and support of our ministry here.

God bless.

Dear Family and Friends

Math, Chicken Giblets and Beans

Life with Children truly means there is never a dull moment. It is harvest time here in Zambia. The rains have ended and it is now the time for the tiring, yet very rewarding, harvest. Grant has been busy all week training rural pastors and leaders, while the kids have been shelling beans! Math was not done until late in the afternoon, when Grant had time to teach each one their lessons. Charley was outside in the thick of things. Shelling beans and getting real dirty while she was at it. Grant called her in for math, but on her way through the kitchen she discovered a pot of “Chicken Giblets” freshly cooked on the stove. What a treat! She grabbed a chicken foot, a chicken heart and a piece of liver, and headed down the passage for math. Grant nearly roared with laughter as she sat down and neatly placed her “treats” next to her on the table. She then pulled out of her pocket a handful of beans – to help her with her math!

Snakes Alive!

Grant, Joel and Friday (Joel’s best friend and our “Sixth Child”) went to Chisanza village to teach and show the Jesus Film. You have to go by boat to get there. Grant had been teaching for a while and decided that they would have a little break before carrying on. The villages started to sing a song and as they began a snake came right up out of the ground right where he and his interpreter were standing. It was quite a large snake, but sticking its head out was the biggest mistake of its life. In a matter of seconds the villagers chopped it in half, one half went back down the hole! Then, when they were eating in one of the small village huts, Joel looked up and saw another snake slithering through a small hole in the wall. It wove its way in and out through various holes in the mud bricks. There were hundreds of people who came and watched the “Jesus Film” and many were reported to be saved that weekend. Chisanza is a village where witchcraft is heavily practiced. So we praise the Lord for the work he is starting to do there.

Luse Community Orphanage and the Mbala for Mbala Project.

Now that we have been on the mission field for over 10 years, we have observed how often people come to start a project and then some years later they abandon it. Most missions started in the past have not been able to be self sufficient or run by the locals when the missionary leaves, hence, all the mission station ruins that scatter Africa. One such abandoned project is an orphanage here in Mbala that was started by a well meaning foreigner. Only now a few years later, the funds have dried up! Who suffers in the end – the orphans! So, after giving it loads of thought, I came up with a plan to start the “Mbala for Mbala” project. This will involve the local business men, churches and people of Mbala to look after the Luse Community Orphanage. I have approached some of the prominent business men asking if they would be willing to give something every month to the orphanage. They suggested that we get together and hold a meeting and discuss the project. We plan to do this when Grant gets back from a trip to Lusaka in a few weeks time.

The ladies group in our local church went to visit the orphanage last Tuesday. They all took what food they were able to spare. On my way there I stopped and asked a few shops if they would be willing to give something. I was given Maize Meal, sugar and cooking oil. It was a very encouraging start. There are, however, many obstacles that we will need to cross in order to get such a project up and running effectively. But, our prayer is that the community will embrace the orphanage and start to look after the orphans without outside support from the West.
Yummy, Yum!
Just in case there are some of you out there that feel sorry for us living up here – DON’T! Guess what we ate the other day. Fresh (Organic) strawberries from our garden, waffles and whipped cream with Hope’s home- made maple syrup! Yum! Eat your heart out - or come visit us!

Praise the Lord for:
· The showing of the Jesus film in Chisanza village and also Kawama village
· Those that accepted Christ on those occasions
· His protection from snakes and those things we do not see
· The discipleship course Grant is holding this week on the college land

Please Pray for:
· Grant as he travels to Lusaka next week
· For the Mbala for Mbala project
· For the Luse Community Orphanage and its orphans
· That God will guide us as we try to find a solution for the orphanage
· For our protection each day as we serve him here

Thanks for your encouragement, your prayers and support of our ministry here.

God bless.

Luke and Joel
“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:14

Dear Friends and Family

It’s hard for us to believe that we have now been in Mbala for over 10 years. Joel was just a bit younger than Luke when we moved here and he is now eleven. We came with just a trailer and only a few possessions and now we have a house full of stuff! Every time another missionary family or ex-pat leave we gain and now we are getting short of space! It is amazing to see how the Lord has provided for us over the years. It was about 15 years ago that Grant felt called to come and minister here in Mbala. It took 5 years before we could come. He first had to go to college for 4 years and then we worked with our church for a year. We praise the Lord for his provision and faithfulness to us over the years.
Grant's calendar for the year is filling up with all the various opportunities he has been given to minister. He no longer has to seek out places to minister they come to him to ask him to teach.
On March 6th, our little Luke will be a year old. Praise the Lord for this little boy that was added to our family and been a true joy to us all!

Lightning Strikes

With the rainy season comes the lightning! This time it was our house that got hit. Praise the Lord that it was only our printer that went up in smoke. This is very frustrating for Grant, as he has to print out his sermons and tests etc for his classes. Our kettle also blew from a power surge or something like that, but that is not as devastating as our printer going up in smoke. We were able to buy a new kettle right here in Mbala.

Funny Stories from the Past

Looking back to our first years in Zambia, we can see just how much we have learnt and grown over the years. We were such city slickers when we first came. When we started our first vegetable garden we had no idea what we were doing! We can remember planting carrot seeds one by one. If you have ever seen carrots seeds you will have a good laugh about that - they are tiny! You never plant them one by one!

When we were given our first chicken we were so excited, especially Grant, who loves eggs. He asked a Zambian, "When will this chicken give us eggs?" The man looked at Grant with a strange look and sadly told him that it would not give us any eggs. Grant was so disappointed and asked him why? He said, "Sorry Mr Grant, this one is a male!" Yip, we must have looked like such idiots to the locals.

It has taken many years to learn the culture and see just how many mistakes we must have made over the years. We are still learning and are just grateful to the Zambians for being patient with us. They have taught us a lot and we can only pray that God will use us in spite of ourselves. That is the great thing about God - He uses us while He continues to change us. If He had to wait for us to be perfect before He used us, He never would be able to! We no longer feel like foreigners or strangers, Mbala feels like home.
We now have an auto bank machine here in Mbala. This is a truly terrific thing! We used to have to travel a 320km round trip to the nearest auto bank and if it was broken Grant would have to get on the bus and travel a 2000km round trip just to draw our support! Now, we just have a five-minute drive into town – life is so much easier!

So, we praise the Lord for providing for us, keeping us safe, restoring us to health when we have been sick and allowing us to serve Him here in Mbala for the past 10 years.
Thank you to you too for praying for us and supporting us over the years. We are most grateful!
God bless, as you too continue to serve him.

With Love,
Lynne Schaefer and Family (Grant, Joel, Hope, Charley, Olivia and Luke)

"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself"

Matthew 6:34

Dear Family and Friends

Tornados, Fireworks, Accidents

and

Mama Mechanic

The Tornado!

Christmas! A day most people are feasting and celebrating. We as a family went out to the Coffee Estate to have Christmas lunch with good friends. But, for others here in Mbala, the day turned out to be a day they will remember forever. At 3:30pm a tornado swept through a new housing area here in Mbala. Ripping the roof off a church and demolishing many houses. A widow lost almost everything she owned, but was happy that her children were safe and unhurt. Her house was ruined, but through the generosity of her church, they have tried to rebuild a small section of her house. It was like a funeral for those who had just finished building their houses. They sat, looking at their demolished home, crying. It was heartbreaking. The government has provided some tents for shelter and World Vision provided blankets and food. Our Mbala Baptist Church that we attend has just finished putting the roof on their newly built building. The tornado missed by metres! We praise the Lord, as the church has saved and struggled for many years to build this new building. Unfortunately, the church just next door lost its entire roof! There is no record of there ever being a tornado here in Mbala in the past!

The Fireworks!

We were invited out to a farm for new-years eve. Our friends there were going to have a fireworks evening for the kids. They invited all the children of a nearby village. Our children were so excited and were not let down when it started. The display was magnificent. The village children were clapping and shouting with glee. They would have never seen such a display ever before. It was wonderful.

The Accident!

Grant had to go down to Lusaka just after Christmas. We were left holding fort here. Boy, did everything go wrong once he left! We had no power for a few days! My dryer broke and with the amount of rain we get a dryer is very useful! We would also have to iron absolutely everything if we never had a dryer as we get Putsi Fly here. It's a fly that lays eggs in your wet clothes and then when you wear them the egg hatches a maggot which burrows under you skin and basically stays there feeding of you! It is very painful! I also broke down in my little Trooper on a day that I was extremely busy. And then, one of our calves's died. I was thinking it could not get worse, and then, it happened. The awful accident.

It happened on the 2nd of Jan. Steven, a young man that works here on weekends to pay for his school fees, fell off the pigsty roof. His arm caught on the broken glass on top of the surrounding wall. His arm was very badly cut, severing main veins and ripping the flesh into an open, jagged gash! There was blood everywhere. It was the worst accident I have had to deal with. I bandaged him up and took him to the hospital, not knowing if they were going to be able to stitch him up. But they did, and they did a very fine job of it! It has actually restored my faith in our hospital here. His arm seems to be healing well, and he has now returned to school doing his last year. He has worked hard to pay for his school fees, books, uniforms etc. We are very proud of this hard working young man.

Mama Mechanic!

While Grant was still away, my oven also broke and the breaks on the Nissan Patrol failed on our way to church. Lorna was driving and when she tried to brake at the junction, there were absolutely no brakes. She had to swerve to avoid hitting an on coming car. We had to drive the rest of the way to church very, very slowly. The roads are also very slippery and muddy because of excessive rain! After church, we decided that it was not a good idea that we would now have no transport. The Isuzu Trooper was out of action after breaking down and we had towed it back home. We decided that we needed to fix it as at least it had brakes. I sat thinking about it all, and decided that it must just have a blocked fuel filter. How hard can it be to change a filter, surely not that hard? The battery was also dodgy. So, we slowly drove to town in the car with no breaks, and I bought a new fuel filter. I fitted the new filter, we took the battery out the Nissan and put it into the Isuzu and it started first time! No problem! We now had transport. Well, Grant came back and everything is now fixed. He fixed the leaking seal on the patrol that caused the break fluid to leak out. Fixed the oven, the dryer, and boy are we happy to have him back!

Praise God that:

- Steven's arm has healed with out any infection

- He has continued to provide for us

- We have had good health

- Hope has now started Bible school too on a Wednesday night

Please pray for:

- Our continued protection and good health

- For Grant as his ministry grows and expands to more remote villages

- For me as a mother to have patience and wisdom in dealing with the children and family issues

Thank you for your prayers and support. God bless you all.
