Lots happening in the Warm Heart of Africa. As of today, Malawi has 703 cases of Covid-19 and 11 deaths. Schools will stay closed but the football league wants to start the season again.
Yesterday was their winter solstice and there was a solar eclipse. One more thing that we missed by having to return home. On Tuesday, they will have national elections, because the courts, back in February, declared last year’s election void. I think the various parties are already claiming victory, even though election day is a few days away.
The building of Ndirande Club’s security wall was stopped for a few days while funding was worked out. They were able to return to work this week and I got some videos to show us how things are progressing. You should be able to look at these, if I got my technology right. Notice how warmly the workers are dressed. Today, Sunday the 21st, the high temperature is 17°C. It’s winter after all. And note the odd angle at the corner. The property is not a rectangle.

That’s all I have to share today. Pray for the country as they get through the election and cope with Covid-19.
Looks like a lot of hard physical labour. They must be quite industrious.
I am impressed that the numbers of COVID-19 cases is relatively low. They must have really cooperated with isolation, etc. in order to survive. THanks for sharing this bit of news from the place that obviously holds a piece of your heart.
Blessings,
Vera
