Easter Week

We had a joyful Easter Sunday this week as we met with the Christians from Batoe and celebrated the Resurrection of our Lord! While I was preaching on the resurrection as the foundation of our faith I was filled with an “inexpressible joy” of being in Christ. Thank you God for revealing yourself to us and then using us to reveal yourself to others!

Our Easter egg hunt was rained out, so we quickly changed plans and had an inside Easter egg hunt complete with Easter candy fresh from America

Matthew finally lost his second tooth this week. It’s been loose for about a month but he would not let us pull it out. In fact, the new tooth was growing in behind it. He was excited to have a visit from the tooth angel who left him two dollars and a blue balloon

Thank you for your prayers for Enyona and Kossi! Enyona’s foot is doing much better and I heard word and that Kossi has also been healed. Praise God for hearing and answering our prayers. Please continue to pray for the Sendome region, that God would use the Christians there to plant a new church this year!

We heard good news this week about our adoption. With one exception, all of our paper work has been notarized and authenticated by both the US and the Chinese governments! Now we are waiting for approval from the USCIS office in Accra to bring an orphan and to the United States. Thank you for praying for those ladies by name. I ask that you continue to pray for Linda Hartman and Adeline Aidoo, that the Lord would put our names on their hearts so that that will remember us and process our paper work quickly!
