In case you didn't know we celebrate Easter over here in Ghana too. Kidding. Of course, you know that! But, I am sure, it is not celebrated like it is here. Ghanaians are totally celebratory people. They know how to party, maybe not be on time for the party, but party when they get there nonetheless :)In Tamale we joined with Good News Bible Church for their Easter Convention. It was 20 km away in a village called Nyankpala. It started Thursday evening and went until Sunday afternoon. It was held at a public school grounds (kids are on break). People slept in classrooms or if they knew someone in the village they stayed there. Damary and I came on Saturday and then we went home and came back on Sunday. Different pastors spoke and also my team leader DooShik.Yes, it was HOT. We sat under a canopy and I felt like an egg slowly frying. But, everyone was hot and you just deal with it. It was encouraging to see people together listening to God's Word and singing and dancing and eating!
Sunday brought on the real celebrating!

So, how much dancing and rejoicing did you do at church today?
