Report from the Mission Field: Rev. Paul Webster

 
Paul Webster is a United Methodist missionary from Wisconsin who is running an agriculture project in a remote area of Zambia.  GLUMC has been contributing $500 quarterly to Paul's support for the past 2 years and Paul is good about keeping us updated on the activities in the project. 
 
 The letter below is a story of success and of the problems that can come with that success.  Paul is very appreciative of your support . 
 
 
Dear Friends and Supporting Congregation,
 
GBGM has just let me know that you have contributed to my Salary Support in the past months.  It is great to know that I have people praying for me and helping me to continue in my work here at Mujila Falls Agriculture Centre (Advance Special 15016A).  We have completed planting our crops for this year and are now just trying to keep the weeds down.  We have completed about half of the barn roof so that our cattle will stay a little dryer and cleaner.
 
We are producing a lot of milk from our cattle and goats and eggs from our chickens.  The good news is that demand is increasing as knowledge of the health effects of drinking milk and eating eggs increases.  The other factor is that local people are planting larger fields and have greater disposable incomes and, thus, can afford milk and eggs.
 
If you are interested in supporting the work we are doing here at Mujila Falls and not just my salary, please consider giving an additional donation to the Mujila Falls Agriculture Project (Advance Special 15016A).  This is what pays for our day care centre,  our oxen and other training programs, buys seed, feed, and fertilizer and keeps my workers paid among many other needs.
 
Also, if you want to be sure to be on our E-MAIL BULLETIN mailing list, please send me an e-mail requesting to be added.  Feel free to use any Information from our newsletters on your Missionary Bullentin board and in your church newsletters.
 
You can go to the following GBGM webpage to track your donations to mine and any other Advance Special to be sure that it has gotten through to its intended recipient.
 
 
Either type in your church number or the Advance Special number to get the desired information.
 
God’s Blessings upon you all from the workers and beneficiaries of Mujila Falls Agricuture Centre.
 
Rev. Paul L. Webster
