Safe arrival

Well, I'm writing from Ivory Coast.  It was a safe arrival, and no problem at customs.  They could use a little help with their bathroom, but otherwise everything went fine.
Thanks so much for your prayers!  Will try to write something more interesting soon.

Travel

Wow!  I just looked at the date of my last post and realized I really need to be more diligent about posting!

The last 4 days have been spent in Kumasi with Dr.s Bernard and Nathalie Kadio, from the Ivory Coast.  We got to do provide some medical helps to the missionary team and the school children from the church school.  That was awesome being able to finally use do some medical stuff on the field, and the Lord really blessed the time we had.
Today, we drove from Kumasi to Takoradi, which was a 7 hour trip.  Praise the Lord, it couldn't have gone any better!  And a double praise that the electricity came on shortly after our arrival so we have some A/C tonight!  These are the loving kindnesses from my sweet Lord - kindnesses motivated by His wonderful love!
Tomorrow, we head into Ivory Coast.  It will be the Kadios (along with the 5 year old son), Kristine and myself.  I do ask your prayers for our safe travel, and especially for the border crossing.  This trip will probably take 7-8 hours.
The Mach family is flying Saturday and arriving on Sunday evening, so I would appreciate your prayers for them as well. It's not so easy traveling with children.
I found it hard to leave Kumasi, as in so short a time the Lord had already begun a work of love for the folks there.  But today it was good to see Isaac again, who is now baptized and regularly attending the local Baptist church!
Pray that the French will come back to my head!
