a small glimpse

You will have to be patient with me as I learn this new world of blogging.  My desire is to use this blog to show you what the Lord is doing in Togo, West Africa.  Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our own lives that we fail to see the great things God is doing all over the world through missions.  That being said, I will be the first to admit that I know nothing about computers!  So, with the Lord's help, I hope this blog shows you just a small glimpse of our journey!

I wanted to post a few pictures of Togo just to give you an idea of where we will be going and what we will be doing.  These pictures are from our time in Togo from 2005 to 2007.


John with some of the children at the weekly Kids Club Bible Study


John & Bawa, a converted Muslim who speaks 5 tribal languages and has a burden to reach his own people for Christ!



One of the highlights of my time in Togo was this Bible study with some of the blind girls at the Center of Light Blind School. Madame Comfort translated from English to Ewe (the girls tribal langauge) and was a wonderful help to me!


John doing one of his weekly Bible Studies with some of the workers at the Blind Center.


The nursing students I was able to help train.


The young man's name was Soudji. He has such a joyful spirit and loved leading music for one of the local churches. Soudji always brought a smile to my face and was an encouragement to his fellow nursing students.


John and me working in the OR...one of the only air conditioned places on the hospital compound! I usually worked in the wards, which were not AC'd so working in the OR was a huge treat for me!


Hope you enjoyed seeing a few pictures. I will try to post some pics of the landscape soon!
