In my last blog (“What is a “typical” day?”), I
talked about the struggles trying to get one young man—Maxwell Mbera--out into the
mission field. He is going to the Mozambique
Mission, right next door to Malawi, but, because Portuguese is the language of his
mission field, he must start off spending six weeks in the Church’s Brazilian MTC
(“mission training center”), learning the language. Late last night we learned his entry to the Brazilian
MTC has now been pushed back to April 29th because the delay in getting a visa from the Brazilian Embassy. He will
be disappointed when he gets the news.
Poor guy. Perhaps someone he needs to reach is still being prepared. I'm sure the wait won't be easy. But definitely worth it!
