Last update from Africa!

So... our second flight was cancelled, but we are now on a third to Philadelphia! I'm determined to get Stephen home for his graduation even if we have to swim ;-) Seriously though, please pray that this flight won't be cancelled and we will make all our connection etc. We leave in the morning to drive to Ghana, and our flight to London leaves tomorrow night. Lord willing we will be in the US around 3:00pm on Tuesday.

We had always intended to write one or two more blog posts, just to tell about our last week here and reflect a little bit on what we've learned. But those will have to be done from home now - so watch for that if you're still interested! Also, we'll post a link to our pictures once we put them up on a web album.

Thank you to all of you for your birthday wishes - I had a very special birthday here. I had mango pie for my birthday cake, and I had the happy birthday song sung to me in 3 languages - French, English, and Ewe. I will never forget that.

Well, I'm signing off from Africa for the last time... (for this trip, that is!). That is sad in some ways, but we are excited about seeing people at home and what is ahead of us there. We are even more excited about what God has done in our hearts while we have been here, and to see where He will take us next! We are so thankful and full of praise to the God who made us, redeemed us, and called us - the same One who is at work in this place and in these people. What an awesome God, and what a privilege to play a part in what He is doing in the world!
