Leaving Changed

As we lie here in the Riddicks great guest chalet, on our last night here, we have mixed emotions. So happy to be going home tomorrow, but also a little sad to be leaving Cameroon. We have fallen in love with the Riddick family, the ministry, the beautiful spirited people, culture, and landscape of Cameroon.

The Riddicks have been first class. Such sweet people to have us here.. give us a wonderful place to sleep, awesome food in our bellies, took time from their busy family schedule and activities to make us feel at home (and we did feel at home), drive us all over Cameroon to show us the beautiful people and landscape, sometimes even while fighting sickness in their bodies, and let us have the privilege to minister in 3 local churches and the Cameroon National Convention. They are passionate, powerful, and perfect servants.. not only to the Kingdom of God, but also to the people of Cameroon. 

We go home with new perspective, renewed burden, wonderful memories, and great stories (oh.. and sore weary legs). Only time will tell what these 3 weeks were really all about. We are leaving changed. 

We fly out of Douala to Younde tomorrow at 2am.. Younde to Istanbul.. Istanbul to New York.. New York to Raleigh.. arriving Saturday at 10pm. Lots of flight time and time changes. Love you.. see most of you soon.

Below are pic's of the village churches we visited while in Cameroon.
