RMI office hit by power cable thieves again

The RMI building was hit by thieves again last night. They did not get into the building, but they stole the power cables from the transformer to the building. This time we were able to diagnose the problem immediately…if there’s no power cable, there’s no power! The police have been called and things are in process to get it repaired but it will take days. It’s hard to imagine why they are targeting this particular building (other than Satan wanting to derail our operations), this is a huge buried cable that goes under a paved road. They have to pull it through a conduit which has several curves and corners. It is no easy task and takes special equipment. It was a tough repair last time, too. Pray for the landlord – the last time cost him thousands and this repeat event is a hard blow to handle.

This greatly hampers RMI’s operations! Relief efforts are still ongoing, planning for the next major stage is being done but we all need to be working there at the office to facilitate things. In the meantime, all calls are being routed to my cell phone and we will be working from home. We'll do our best to stay on top of things, but if there's a delay in our service or response to you, please be patient and keep trying!

Pray that this time out of the office will be less than last time (which was more than a week).
