“Nothing But Nets” in Zimbabwe
My conference has been helping distribute mosquito netting in Zimbabwe. For more details, see: “UMs pioneer net distribution in Zimbabwe”. The pictures are priceless.
According to my church’s conference member, reporting back from Annual Conference, the Zim women are already figuring out that the more kids they can squeeze under each net, the more impact each net will have. She said that the United Methodist Church was selected to help with distribution because the folks organizing the campaign found that in Africa, “everywhere we go, there’s a United Methodist Church!” So stay alert - your conference will probably be asked to get involved too.

The print version had some delightful pictures of children I recognized from Fairfield Children’s Home, and some I think at Clare!
