Brings back memories.....8-)

This morning our Guest House flat is filled with the excited energy of a dozen children ranging from babies to teen-agers as well as four different parents who are gathered to form a Homeschooling group.  Each of these missionary families works in different areas in Ghana and in Togo, and are wanting to get together several times a year to provide their children with learning opportunities that are not always available to them as they homeschool their children.  It’s been so much fun to have them around…one of the families has been sharing our unit for the past couple of days and their presence has brought back many memories of when we use to run the guest house here 20 years ago.   Originally this place was built with missionary families in mind, but over the years, there have been less of them around, with more short termers and conference attendees coming to fill up the place.   While we meet many interesting people as we stay here, this group brings back wonderful memories of our years homeschooling our children here with other missionary families; the fact that Leanna and Jordan are currently on their way to Tamale to see us probably just enhances those memories!  I also find myself wondering if I can encourage some of the teachers we know to consider coming out to help this group or others like them…..

 

A few people have been asking how my health has been, and I wanted to assure everyone that I am doing wonderfully in every way; no problems at all!  We are so thankful for Gods mercy and grace.
