The Journey Begins in 6 Hours!!

In about six hours I have to be up and ready to catch my shuttle to the airport at 2:30 a.m.!!! Not gonna lie, that's going to be pretty rough.

Our flight leaves Denver at 6:10 and we fly to Chicago, then we have an 8 hour layover! I'm not super stoked on that but I am very thankful for layovers. I'll at least have a chance to walk around and stretch out.

After Chicago we're headed out to Brussels which is an 8 hour flight. Then we've got one more layover for 4…

English Lesson

Last Saturday I visited the Yeo family as I have made a habit of. The oldest brother asked if we could get together for him to practice English. He is in the middle of studying Biology at a University in Abidjan, but cam back to Bouake after the University shut down to help his family. By the way, just because you can speak English does not mean you can teach it: I was asked one day what the difference is between each other and one another. His English seemed much better when it came out in… Continue

A Second Year in Cote d'Ivoire

I guess words need to become action, and the next step for me is to address the issue of logistically staying another year in Cote d'Ivoire.



There was no word of God in a earthquake or a storm telling me what to do next year. There was a quiet stillness, but it did not include the information I was hoping to hear.

June

First, I am sorry.  June went by fast and I did not believe it had been over a month since my last blog until I sat down to write this one.  This blog tries to cover the entirety of the month, but a second entry will soon follow to address more current inklings.



June was a whirlwind month with lots of traveling.  The month started with a trip to Korhogo to replace a motor for a cement mixer being used to make a new girls school and would later be needed for a church work day…
