Malawi/Swaziland Visit - Sunday 18th March

John Riches • March 18, 2018

Howard took us to the local Anglican Church, where we met the local priest, a well-educated friendly man who had brought up his two sons since his wife died when their younger son was 2. He lives in a very basic house and is busy rebuilding the church, which had become too small. He left us to go to a church some way from Karonga and we took our places for a three hour service in the local language. Lots of very vigorous singing with a good choir and amazingly well-behaved children.

Lunch with Howard, and then a quiet rest of the day at the Lodge.
