Catching up!


So the Last few fundraisers have been a huge success! We raised over $600 selling donuts and over $200 for the parents night out.
With only TWO weeks left to prepare I’ve (EG) been learning a lot. God has been showing me how gracious He is to allow such an unworthy person to serve His kingdom in Ghana, and the mercy He’s bestowed on me when I try to do things in my own power.
Last year’s missions trip to Ghana is a huge testimony to me. It was so evident how much God was working in Ghana, and how big of a need there is. It just seemed right to continue this great ministry.
Not knowing that Mary and I both had a desire to go on this amazing adventure (That communication comes with big family’s) we both felt the Lord leading us there. And look where we are now!
               
                   Our biggest concern in going is safety, and health—prayers would be greatly appreciated! You can also be praying that God will prepare not only our hearts but those we will be ministering to as well; and that His will be done in and through us.

what it's all about....

Greetings! For the next two months it is our goal to use this space to document the happenings and lessons learned as we prepare and go to Ghana this June. Each one of us has felt the Lord’s leading to serve in this manner and we are so excited to see this trip come to fruition. Our days there will be spent teaching in primary schools, participating in church conferences, visiting hospitals to lay hands on and pray for the sick, evangelizing on the streets of Tamale, and just helping in any way we can to encourage the native missionaries who we will be working alongside. So please join us in praying that the name of God would be glorified in Ghana this summer and that many lives would be redeemed through the saving blood of Jesus! -Mary and EG “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.” –John 17:20-21
