Abstract:	It is nighttime. As I sit to reflect and write, I reckon that it has been three weeks without electricity. We are still in darkness. The rains have just stopped and the sky is dark with heavy clouds. The earth is quiet except for the hissing of the Mupfuri River some 100 meters away from our Jesuit community at St. Rupert Mayer Mission, Makonde, Chinhoyi Diocese, Zimbabwe. The days indeed have turned into a year since I arrived at this mission on 26 December 2014....
Description:	Sometimes I go out to the outstations not knowing how I will return. Will the road still be passable on my way back? Will the bridge still be standing when I try to cross back to the mission? On one occasion, I had to wait for several hours for one of the rivers to recede before crossing.
