I have had a burglary - computers, cell phone, glasses, tv etc all lost.
I will not be able to send letter this week.

I've sent an inquiry as to whether or not she's been harmed in any way.  No response yet.  This is not good.  Keep her and her son in your prayers!

will do, thanks MC......let us know what else you hear.

Please let us know. Though I do not know her this is awful and I will pray.......,  that she and her son are alright, and all will be returned to her. I will pray His comfort for her too, so she will feel safe again.

Any news?

Yes, I recieved the following e-mail on the 7th of Sept.2006.  I did not post it as I had asked permission first and have not yet recieved a reply.  However, I've decided to go ahead and post anyway so those of you who keep Cathy in your prayers will continue to do so.  Thanks for the reminder.

Terrible event. It just is not safe for her at this time. She really needs to go home to Britain for awhile.

[MCYoung/Tx]

Don't think she will.  She's stayed the course for a reason...to bear witness.  I tried to reason with her a few years ago to think about leaving but she would not.  She is daily in my prayers!  If I were in her shoes, I'd probably stay too...somebody needs to tell the world of the events occurring in Zimbabwe.  I'm hoping she's able to continue her letters soon.  Will keep you posted if I hear anything new.
