Today, I woke up at 7:30 in the morning. We ate breakfast and relaxed at the house until 10:20 A.M. After 10:30 A.M., our day did not slow down the rest of the day. We got to the church and set a few things up. I was in charge of getting the coffee going. I have never seen three pots of coffee go so quickly. I also saw several people making a drink with hot water and creamer, I guess they like it.
We started by having English class with Mrs. Ruckman. We then had Homiletics 1, Old Testament Survey, The Book of Romans, and finally Baptist Distinctive. When I finished my classes, Bro. Ruckman and Mrs. Angie were in a meeting with someone. I decided to do a little homework, and then I helped a boy from the church write John 3:16. When we had finished everything at the church, we headed back to the house.
We stopped on our way home to buy bread. After arriving at the house, we ate a delicious meal. We had Ghanaian sausage, French fries, and some mixed vegetables. We are now resting up after a long day. We will most likely have another long day tomorrow. So, now I am just going to work on a few things on my computer, then I will most likely head to bed.
Dad, Mom, Danny, and Bonnie are currently in an airplane from Istanbul to Houston. We have family that will pick them up. They are probably going to be pretty messed up, because they left Accra yesterday and got to the Istanbul Airport early in the morning. Then, they had a nine hour layover in Istanbul, so they had plenty of time to explore the airport:). They left Istanbul at 3:11 P.M. their time, noon my time, and they will arrive in Houston at 7:45 P.M. their time, and midnight my time. They have a fifteen hour flight. It is really confusing, because they left at 3:11 P.M on the 2nd and are arriving at 7:45 P.M on the 2nd. It has my mind going in circles, but anyway, that is all for tonight.
Again if you see any errors, my editor is on an airplane. I would wait to publish it until she lands, but she will probably be dog tired or not, who knows.

Love to hear how you are doing.
Busy Saturday for you.. it’s always great to study God Word.
I’m sure you will be learning lots. How wonderful for you to be able to help others grow in the Word.
I’d be totally off with all those time zones.
🙌God I’m in good old east Texas time.
Hope you are having a Great Sunday Service.
🙏For you & for your Families safe return
I’m so excited and proud for you, Gilbert. What an amazing opportunity you have to be doing Bible college over there. Often what is missing in missions classes is practicality. You’re getting it all. We’re praying for you every day and the boys can’t wait every night to “hear what Gilbert did today.”
Thank you. I’m glad to hear your boys are excited to read the blog. Thanks for everything!!!
I thought, after catching up on a few posts I had missed, “Wow! What beautiful, proper grammar Golbert uses! Now I know the secret! 😆
Well, I write everything, but sometimes I miss a comma or two. Except for while mom was on the plane, I was able to type the entire thing without error. Mom checked it later and said I had no mistakes.
