More About Ghana

Some of you have been asking great questions about Ghana. Joel will work at a hospital in a town called Nalerigu. The hospital services an area with a population of roughly 100, 000 people. There are currently two full-time doctors there. Joel will make the third. He will see patients in the clinic for ailments such as malaria. He'll deliver babies and perform surgeries on men, women, and children. There is a nutrition center for moms with malnourished babies. We can go there to share Bible stories. We can help villages have church. We will be used to pray for healing, deliverance, and salvation. We will have many varied opportunities to minister to those around us.

I will still homeschool Colt there as I do here. We will do some school with Benton, the Hewitts' eight year old boy. We look forward to getting better acquainted with the missionaries and Ghanians.

Post more questions and I'll be happy to answer them! Put "ghana" in the search engine at the top of our blog to see a few pics about where we're going.

Big News!

After much prayer and seeking direction, it looks like we may be leaving for Ghana in November. We plan to be there for two years. We ask for your prayers as we start preparations and as God continues spiritual preparations. There's much to do. We are excited about finally being at this point after several years of anticipating this.
