Mama Margret is super sweet,loving, generous, compassionate, and other centered. She is in charge of all the ground work over here, so she is always kept busy. She is always looking out for the interns and making sure we are safe, happy, healthy, and content here. She is always laughing and smiling and always has a word of advice and wisdom ready on her lips. She is a huge spiritual soldier, a woman who has walked with God and established a strong relationship with Him.
Baa Mareta is a quiet, loving lady who is also strong in her walk. She is the go-girl for EOH. Always on the go running errands, shopping, getting money from the bank and working out problems that arise.
Baa Patricia is very jolly. She's always smiling and laughing, and constantly goes around singing praise and worship songs in Nongia. She loves to teach us how to cook Zambian recipes and is always dancing and singing. She has a huge servants heart and gets to the office earlier then anyone else to make sure the office is clean for the day.
Baa Caison is super quiet but very funny. He is often heard muttering to himself under his breath then laughs it off or pretends he wasn't. He is studying Spanish so he is often heard to be practicing his newest Spanish words.
Brian is one of the guards here. Every morning when we come we are greeted with his huge smile and joyful greeting. He is always smiling and laughing. He is a busy bee who is always serving the staff in ways that are not even his duties.
Baa Muchimba is our taxi driver. He is super calm and seems to never care about anything. He is very caring and treats us like family. He is our daily go-to guy, taking us anywhere we need to go.
Baa Mariann is in charge of all the Lusaka houses. She oversees them and makes sure there are no problems with the kids or mamas or anything like that. She is very passionate for the Lord and the work she is doing and does not stop until problems are solved.
Mrs. Michelle is in charge of the sponsorships. She is very adamant about getting her job done and making sure those children are getting enough sponsors. She is very encouraging and super understanding and supportive of us interns. She is really sweet and loving. Very much like an aunt to us.
Mr, Jake is Mrs. Michelle's husband. He is a quiet, attentive kind of guy. He is really friendly and encouraging. He's kind and generous. Very supportive of the work we're doing and eager to lend a hand and pitch in to help.
These are some of the people that I have the pleasure of serving with over the next few weeks. Together, we will be reaching out to the local orphans and bringing Christ closer to them. In just a couple days, 72 Teen Mania missionaries, 33 short term missionaries, the entire EOH staff and 4 interns, will be hosting 3 Camp Hopes and touching the lives of over 300 orphans. Now that will be the work of God!!! May His name be praised and He get all the glory and credit from the work we are and will be doing!!
“For the glory of God!”
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
