What a busy, blessed weekend!!! Preparing bags for the prison and hospital. On Thursday, Eric was able to give out bags of different grocery items, tracts, and John and Romans at the prison. It was raining so he wasn’t sure how many would come out, but around 180 men came! They all huddled under aContinue reading “Christmas Weekend”

A Drive to the City
I have been feeling like my life is pretty hard lately. Daily living has been hard. In the last storm, one of the electrical lines coming into the compound was broken. It was the one for the fridge and water. So now even when we do have electricity, we don’t have water or a fridge.Continue reading “A Drive to the City”

They started singing while waiting for us to leave and sang almost the entire drive to the airport! (Which I know our pastor thoroughly appreciatedContinue reading “We’re On Our Way!”
Settling In
Our second Sunday! It still doesn’t feel real, and yet it feels like we’ve been here forever already! I had the opportunity today to teach the children’s Sunday school through a translator this morning. I always forget to ask someone to take pictures. I did get some videos and pictures when the kids were singingContinue reading “Settling In”
