PRICES HAVE CONE MAD

Because of the housing shortage and lack of building supplies, the price ofproperty has jumped. A few years ago I bought my two bedroom apartment forZ$11 ,000.00. As I was leaving for the USA earlier this year apartment 17 waspriced at Z$80,000.00. It sold! Apartment 6 sold for Z$125,000.00 just before Ireturned. Food, utilities and other expenses have boon risen.

cJUoPRAYER REQUESTS

The staff of Zimbabwe Christian College. The health of Jack and PeggyPennington. Safety of travel and clarity of presentation of the work for those onfurlough. New work at the University of Zimbabwe led by Tim and Ann Sandefurand baby Kayla Marie.

May God bless you at this season of the year to have a greater love for Him andHis Son.

Your sister and partner In His work,
