June

 In June the long awaited visit from Aunt Amy finally arrived. At the end of the month two couples from our board came for a visit as well.

We finally planted a coconut tree. Not sure why we waited so long to plant trees!

Driving home from Cape Coast one beautiful evening.

Waiting for Amy to come out from the airport.

We went to village baby clinic at Living Hope.

And of course had supper at Mable's Table.

The boys were delighted to take Amy to see the river.

                                         

And Brent was tickled with his fish and chips that came on a fish plate at the restaurant in Accra on the way back to the airport.

The end of June Ken and Barb Schaffer and Curt and Keturah Zimmerman and their daughter Kelsey came to visit. Gary's and Curt's met us and Ken's to tour the castle. Oaklynn is so good for my rough and tumble boys. She is a good reminder to them that people watch what they do!

There was a ceremony at the new fishing port to lock the sea. They close down fishing for the month of July and August while the fish spawn.

We were very thankful we arrived before these tour busses.

Patricia cooked supper for all of us one evening. Some missionaries from the Eastern mission close to Accra were also around that evening. It was wonderful to let her do all the work and she was very glad for the job.

   We are halfway through July already! The next few weeks look almost as busy as the last few but in a different way. We plan to start school next week. No teacher could be found for our area so we are moving ahead with homeschooling, trusting in God's plan. Next month several visitors will be around again, my parents among them! 

  Keep serving right where you are. Wherever God has put you, be all there!
