Wow, today was an amazing day!  God is so good and I feel so blessed to be here.  My sister tried to explain to my nephews before I left that I was coming to Africa to teach children about Jesus.  In fact, I think we had it mixed up....because in all reality, the children are teaching me about Jesus.  I am so amazed by the way God works in our lives. 

Thought of the day from Bible study: God's mercy is undeserved favor and grace.  It is not based on man's perfomance.

I went to downtown Accra today with the village director and childcare director.  I had an amazing time!  Seeing Africa firsthand is eye-opening.  There were so many people....We had a chance to do some shopping for African fabrics, look for fabric for the children's new pajamas and bedsheets, and buy some groceries.  This picture is of the childcare director and I - we are drinking a commonly-sold purified water "pouch" - Fun times!
