We are still in Africa!!!

Hello from Ghana! It is “Verrry Goood” here (this is what Joseph would say)!

Well, it has been a few days since I have posted anything and a lot has happened!  We finished up at the first village.  The last night we had a crusade and showed the Passion of the Christ.  I was able to preach and the Holy Spirit was moving because I have no idea what I even said, but people responded!  One boy that responded had been my little buddy, and as I looked down he was standing at my feet with tears falling down his eyes.  His face was the most sincere that I have ever seen on anybody praying, and his eyes were closed with his hands raised up to God. I will never forget it!


I have learned a few more random facts in Ghana that I would like to share:

1.       If you say “I feel good” all of the children will start singing the song.
2.       The most common pain in Africa is waist pain.
3.       The difference between 2 schools is their love for the students and Obama.  The first school asked us what we would like to do for the children. The second school said, “What message do you have for us from Obama?”
4.       In some places, you could get a spanking instead of a speeding ticket.
5.       Driving in Ghana is never safe. 1 beep is a warning, 2 beeps means move, 3 means I am going to hit you, and 4 means you have been hit.
6.       The most popular question I have been asked is “What is your mother’s name?”
7.       Pinballnaeshay is still not a word, but people in Ghana are so nice that they do not let you know you are wrong.

I miss you guys! Keep praying that God will continue to grow the churches that He planted and use everything we have done for His Glory!
