Goodbye Ghana

In six and a half hours will be taking off from the airport in Accra. We leave with mixed emotions; eager to return to our home and family yet reluctantly saying goodbye to new friends. We have learned so much while we were here. It is my prayer that God has been glorified.

The McIntyres received news this morning that they will have to move out of this house by Nov.1. That means finding a new home (they have to pay rent in advance) and moving their 3 children, the two babies, and the intern that will be arriving soon. Please pray for them......they only want God's will to be done and for Him to be glorified. Pray that they will find a wonderful home with sufficient room for all and that is affordable.

Yesterday was a day for relaxing? We took a three and a half hour ride up the coast and visited a rainforest park that had a canopy walk..7 rope bridges over a 60' ravine. It was fun. Then a on and a half hour drive to tour a slave fort. Then a two hour drive to the coast for a swim in the ocean. The waves knocked me down. It was a little scary....I didn't swim in it. We ate dinner at a restaurant on the beach. Then a long drive home and to bed.

The other team left early this morning to go to the village to help Dinah. They were excited to help her with her clinic even though they would be having a three hour ride there and again to return here. They will be leaving on Thursday.

I am sorry that we were unable to get more pictures for you to see on our blog. You will just have to visit and look at them or come to Grace Bible Church when we do our presentation. This Sunday will be a short one just to give you an idea of what is coming.

See you soon!
