Hut to Hut in Wyamba

Hi Ya'll! Beverly is writing today. We had another amazing day in Ghana. God has blessed each day's work so much. Today we went out to the village and paired up with an interpreter to go hut to hut sharing Bible stories. Fiona and I had an awesome Ghanaian Christian with us to take our journey through the village. We first visited with a group of about eight women who were very receptive to our visit. One of them did offer her baby to me to bring home but I had to give him back. Our work in this village is mainly to help plant a church because currently there is only a mosque. We ended our visit by asking if they had any questions and one of them asked if they could come to both the church and be Muslim. We assured them that everyone was welcome to come to church on Sunday. Pray that these people will come to church and hear the "Jesus Way." We visited several other huts and shared with several more women. It was a great morning in the village and we can't wait to go back and do it again tomorrow.

We ate our lunch under a tree in the school yard while the students had their lunch. I can't wait for Rockwall students to see those pictures. After lunch we were allowed to do a VBS during the afternoon school hours at the school. Fiona and I did the Bible story using two puppets. Let me tell you that when you get a very strong Texas accent, a very British accent, and a Ghanian translator together with two puppets, you end up with quite a show! The kids were very amused with our very comical act. But they listened so well and were told how much God loves them. We can't wait to get back there tomorrow!

It's so exciting to hear about the seeds being sown in the name of Jesus Christ. We miss you all, but know we will only be apart for a short time, but the work you are doing will have eternal consequences....there's just no comparing!
