Yesterday we again traveled deep into the provinces of Sierra Leone; the town of Bo in the Southern Province, and Kenema and Daru in the Eastern Province close to the Liberian border. Again another 12 hour round trip and visits all in 1 day. These areas are rich in West African tradition and culture, yet known for diamonds, corruption, and some of the hardest hit during the civil war and Ebola crisis. This visit again was to greet and encourage village pastors, congregations, and schools that had not seen a missionary in 12 years. The people are so beautiful, welcoming, and very thankful to know of our support. These are our brothers and sisters. We are all a part of God's Kingdom and family!
Just an ant hill.
Today is a much needed day of rest. Saturday, Sunday, and Monday we will remain in the Freetown region for visits to church/school building projects, church services, board meetings.. oh, and maybe a couple beach trips to take a dip or two. We are safe and healthy. We love you. - Jeff
