Sierra Leone Here We Come
Tomorrow a group of five, including me, will leave for 10 days in Sierra Leone. We are going to support a church planting ministry called Africa for Jesus. We will meet people in remote villages, encourage them in their efforts, teach pastors and families, and share God’s love to the people of Africa. I’m excited.
I have traveled extensively doing mission work, but this will be my first trip to the continent of Africa. From the research I have done, this will be the most primitive setting in which I have ever ministered…and I’ve been to some rough places. I’m praying God uses this time to strengthened my faith. (I realize that is a scary prayer.)
Here is how you can help. I have some posts sporadically planned and hope to add some while I am away, but I will have limited Internet time. You can help by tweeting my posts as you are encouraged to do so. I hate to put work into a post and not be able to promote it properly.
Obviously you can pray for us and our families who are still here. We believe we are prepared and going to relatively safe areas, but as with any trip like this, there are always unexpected adventures. It would be great to know that we are being covered in prayer.
Will you commit to pray for our trip? I promise to update you as I can and share pictures from Africa, or if not, when we get home. Thanks and God bless.
