Oink oink.......

As I said earlier.....we had some piglets living in our orchard.  There were 6 of them and we tried to find out who owned them in the villages that surrounded us but we couldn't find an owner for them.

 

They had caused some damage to the plumbing and the guys were asking what we were going to do with them.  Paul encouraged the guys to pray and ask God for a solution.  One of the guys had a dream that the pigs found their way to garden and ate all the plants.  Paul left the guys discussing what they should do and told them to get back to him with a plan.

 

They decided that it would be a good idea to catch the piglets so made a temporary pen for them.  We went to the local Chief to report the piglets and to ask him if anyone had reported any missing, he had not heard of any piglets.

 

Now piglets are not easy to catch!!!!  We had to get all the day care kids to help us.  It was such fun, the guys chased them through the orchard and the kids from day care also helped. When 2 of them ran towards the girls they screamed and moved aside letting them get away, but thankfuly we caught 3 and another 1 in a trap Evance had set, which he was very proud of.

 

Initially they were very scared but now they oink as you get near to them in the hope that you give them some food, which they finish in record time and with a lot of mess, they really are pigs!
