Wanted: RAIN Urgently
We ask your prayers for the country. Beira, Tete and Chimoio (Gondola) have not received rain and it is dry. The rainy season normally begins in with a few good showers in October, some more substantial ones in November and December so that by January, we are regularly receiving rain. It has maybe it rained once but not enough. The seeds are dying in the ground and the corn is dying. People say that if the rain does not come by the New Year that it may not come at all or the corn will not have enough time to grow before the rains end. This would be devastating, I cannot imagine it. People are already hungry because of a poor harvest (due to too much rain last year). Please pray for rain!
