Laptops!

Imagine walking into Mitch's office at SIM and all you see are laptops! Right now he is working on several at once. One of them was hand-carried from a lady in Benin, Sara, and will soon be hand-carried back to her. I'm sure she's counting the days until it returns.

Sara works at a dispensary in Northern Benin. Often her medical treatments are things that should be taken care of at SIM's hospital, but the patient can't travel that far. She works alongside local pastors who counsel the patients in their native tongues. She, among many missionaries, depends a lot on her laptop for correspondence, record-keeping, etc.

Praise for Benin: The Lokpa Bible was dedicated in May! This is a translation Mitch helped with when we were there. Pray this Bible will be well-read and will bear fruit in the hearts of the believers and non-believers.
