Monday

Hello Farragut Church Ghana Mission Blog Readers,

We just got back from our leave of absence to the Rainforest and the El Nina Slave Castle/El Nina City Tour. Quite an experience. It was awesome!!! I myself went on the city tour, which was fantastic. We had a great tour guide. And, most importantly, we didn't have to leave the bus the whole time!!! Oh, it was a relief when the guide said we would be staying on the bus and DRIVING around El Nina. That was great.

We are going to be opening the clinic tomorrow morning. Since we have a dentist on board, we had to rearrange the eye clinic. Consequently, I'm stuck in the only room in the clinic without a fan. This is going to be interesting. We have four of our clinic days and then we leave to go to the market, Frankie's, and the airport on Saturday. Can't wait.

PS to Alex's blog, above; the spelling of the town is Elmina if you are trying to check it out on a Ghana map or the internet.



It has been a great trip so far with some cooler weather, some passing by thunderstorms and rain; and some great fellowship in our group and with the Fetteh Church and the kids here on campus. We are hearing that the dental clinic equipment is tenuous and so please pray for that aspect particularly, but for us over all. Please.



Read Psalms 103 when you get a chance...we are so little and God is so...., you know. Garganuan! I pray that He will work in us because He loves his people.

So happy to read that you had a good time today. Alex, I know you will remain strong, even in the absence of a fan! You will be so busy that the temperature will not be an obstacle. Cameron, I look forward to hearing about your adventures,too.

Love to all!
