Christmas in Africa

Just received this update from some of our colleagues in Ghana and wanted to share their story with you. 

At many Safaliba festivals, people give each other gifts of sugar to help them in preparing tea and other similar sweet drinks which they don't consume much during regular times.

This past Sunday we were at a small Safaliba church, and we gave the leader several copies of the scripture portions which were recently translated. He glanced through them while the congregation was singing a song, and after they finished he announced that "Our friends have given us sugar and honey for Christmas!"

"Your words are sweeter in my mouth than honey!"
-Psalm 119:103
