First Full Day In Ghana


August 23, 2023

Since we went to bed at 2:00 AM, we did not set any alarms this morning. We got up a little after 9:00. Mrs. Ruckman made breakfast for us. Then, we sorted through our bags and gave the Ruckmans the things that we had brought for them. 

Bro. Ruckman, Joe, Gilbert, and Danny went to deliver some things that we brought for others. Bonnie woke up with a swollen eye and a bump on her head. We have not determined if it is a bug bite or if she had a fight with her bed in the night. 

We had a restful day. Joe preached at Mt. Calvary Fundamental Baptist Church tonight. This is the church that we worked in when we were missionaries in Ghana. It was a blessing to see some familiar faces and lots of new faces. 

Gilbert took his camera to church tonight. All of the children wanted their picture taken. Bonnie played some games with the girls after church. Danny was trying to keep all of the children’s names straight. 

We had dessert and visited with the Ruckmans when we got home. Now, it is bed time.
