Just letting you know all is well here in Ghana! We have been doing different activities in the villages everyday, telling bible stories, vbs, bringing food to widows and orphans. At night we've been doing crusades in the surrounding villages, showing the Jesus film. For 3 nights we've had revival at shalom baptist. And let me tell ya, I'm not sure you've been revived til you've been to an African revival. Open air church with gravel floor. Stories shared of being beaten after converting to Christianity from their Muslim faith. Their dedication to the Lord is so strong and passionate. They worship with all of their heart. The ghanain believers have been such an encouragement and example to me of faith. Next to them I feel so humbled. Almost unworthy to even be worshipping the same God. We did a good news congress with 140 children. It's like a vbs day. I bandaged many little wounds :( they need so much more than I can give them. But God has been so good to me. I'm so thankful to be back here.
I've seen clean water in a village that has never had water before, women rejoicing at the sight of food delivery, the most joyful children I've ever seen as they played with a water bottle, Ghanian believers sharing their faith with their Muslim neighbors, dancing and clapping and they worship the Lord...ahhhh so much more. More than I have time to descibe.
