Dear friends and family, gary and our friend Ben McNeer with our friends and partners at CYI, Christ For Youth International.
A great time of worship, teaching and fellowship.
Well,,,, the old girl,,, just got plumb tuckered out.
Last month we traveled from Bolgatanga in the north, to Kumasi in the southern-central region to find a "home use" (used & - unknown source) engine and gear box (4x4 transmission). After a long trip down and a sleep over, we found the engine the next day from one of many piles and stacks of engines. We prayed throughout the process and believe that God led us to the right people. We traveled with the engine and trans in a taxi up to Bolga. Being overloaded,,, a lot, it was a long 12 hr. journey well into the night. We thank God. The next day "Elvis"(our young and talented mechanic friend) and gary got everything removed and installed and we drove that night. The entire process and project cost $1,800.00. We thank God for a dear friend and partner who provided for most of the cost. After a long day,,, it's time to eat some Banku, fish and okra stew! gary with the Grass Lake Calvary Church/West African Bible Institute team, after they gifted Pastor Robert and his wife Mavis with a motor bike. This transportation has already helped him and made him much more effective in his work and coordination's. gary is traveling to Bolga on Aug. 18. Please pray for safe travel and wisdom while serving there. Once again God has blown us away by providing for and encouraging us through His people!
Our dear friends here in Ghana have provided the funds for gary to travel to the states! Scheduled to arrive on Sept 8th. and both returning to Ghana on Nov. 12th. Siham has had 2 deaths in the family in the last month, our daughter Theresa had eye surgery, continued eye Dr. appointments for siham's eyes and an experimental drug trying to regulate the pressures in Her eyes. Please pray with us for her vision. Thank you all for your continued love, encouragement and partnership in His mission. "To reach this broken and lost world."
In Him,
