We're Back!!
Hello!
We're back from Ghana, Africa as of last night, and it's great to be home. We spent the last 10 days either on a plane, or taking pictures/video with Living Hope International Ministries in Cape Coast, Ghana. They wanted some promotional pictures of what all the ministry is doing, so they can raise awareness as well as funds in the US. They run two orphanages, as well as about 1000 other things over there, all in the name of Jesus, helping people physically as well as spiritually. Every single day, there is a line of people outside the main house waiting for some kind of help. People walk, ride taxi's and will sit outside for days until someone comes out and listens to their needs. Funds are often limited, so LHIM can't always be of assistance, but they do what they can.
We helped with distributing seeds to villages, put on crusades with music and preaching, and helped with taking medical clinics to the villages so that people who needed help wouldn't have to leave home. All in all, our awareness of the human condition was increased, in the fact that we all are pretty much alike, from the poorest person to the richest person. We all have a deep seated need for love, fullfillment in life, and for Jesus. Though everything about their culture is different than ours, we in the USA have sooooo very much to learn from them.
Don't you fret, there will be pictures on here before long.
cheers
