Back Into It

Thanks for praying!! I got back into the swing of things! Feelin' good!On Monday, we had Phil and 2 board members of SIM GHANA come and visit. Patrick and Agnes. They have been on the board for awhile and have wanted to see all the people that they hear about and pray for. It was great to share with them what Tamale is like, how discouraging language can be and them, being Ghanaians who have stayed in Tamale, were very understanding and encouraging. I mean, coming to visit alone was encouraging!Tuesday, I did language. I had a lesson. It was good. I made a deal with Pastor Andrew and Jemima that if I did not listen to my Dagbani recording for an hour every day this month I would have to work for them. We laughed, but they have been asking me everyday! I love accountability :)20180204_114712 Just a pic of what I see on the roads daily.I was able to go out and talk with friends. I have a little talk about my operation in Accra and then people coming up in January. I told them now that I am done with other things, I can come back to language learning. I also met with 3 students at the youth hostel who said they would help me learn when I come by. I hope to build relationships with them in this way.Do you know what Guinea Fowls are? They are loud, annoying birds! My neighbor has raised some. Actually, he has 2 turkeys and he found out that turkeys will care for baby birds other than their own kind, so actually, the turkeys raised these fowls. I heard one gal say that Guinea Fowls have the most beautiful feathers and the ugliest face. I completely agree. They are very good for protein and eating and their eggs are hard but also have a lot of protein. After they fly over our wall and squawk so loudly in the morning, I am about to roast all of them. Ugh...
Other than that, life goes on and God is always good.Love you. Thanks for Praying!
