Pictures

We went to a wedding for a daughter of our supervisors - it was right on the beach!




This is a little girl that was watching the ceremony.


It was so funny - during the ceremony all these vendors walked down the beach!






Here are some pictures from Luke's birthday!


His class enjoying some cupcakes.





These are some pictures of the vendors on the road! I am sure that you thought I was exaggerating!








The kids finished up school last week and we now have an eighth grader, sixth grader and third grader. They all did very well in school - although Zach had the hardest transition. We have been told next year it will be easier as they won't be the new kids and they know what to expect.
Tuesday we leave for the Gambia. Pray for safe travels, as we are told that the roads are horrendous. Pray also for the ferry ride - we have been told that it could take up to 10 or more hours to get a ride on the ferry (unless you pay to get to the front of the line). We are hoping to get there early enough to beat the rush, but it is still a long day. In the training we will be learning how to share a story of Jesus' life - from creation to the cross. It is an English speaking country so that helps, we are also told there are a fare amount of Wolof speakers too. So we are hoping that we won't digress in our language. We not sure of our internet availability while we are there, but will post whenever possible.

Did youn have hours of time to share the Gospel waiting for the ferry? I hope you had safe travels and are enjoying your stay. Blessings,
