W'apow mu e, 

The power has been off at the church since Tuesday.  There is a problem that the electric company has not been able to fix yet.  It was fine this morning because it was cloudy.  We had a good day at church.  There were 84 in attendance this morning, and four boys got saved.  

I had 24 in my class.  It worked out fine having a different helper in each class.  I did all of the songs, and they taught the lesson in Fante.  Emmanuel taught during Sunday school, and he taught in English and Fante.  Ordeth did the Junior Church lesson just in Fante.  Our kids could still follow along with the pictures.  Gilbert said that he understood what she was saying, but I think he understood because of the pictures.  Bonnie said that she couldn't understand Fante yet because she isn't saved.  : )

It rained hard at the beginning of the service this evening.  But, the rain let up, and we were able to hear the preaching.  We had a candle lit service since the power is still out.

I think I have all of the last minute things done before I leave in the morning for my trip.  We will head to the Takoradi airport at 6:00 in the morning.  Joe and the kids are going to go out to eat for breakfast after they drop me off since there is no school tomorrow.  The kids haven't seemed too upset about my leaving yet.  They keep thinking of things that I should get for them.  : )  Please pray for traveling safety and that I am able to make all of my connections.  Pray for Joe as he holds the fort.  

I am passing the daily e-mail baton to Joe for the next couple weeks.  He will try to keep you informed of the daily happenings.  

Nantsew yie!
