Guinea Trip

We arrived home from Guinea and had a great time with our new friends from Mississippi. They were really a great group -- all fun, easy going, and willing to work hard to share Christ's love in a remote village in West Africa! We really enjoyed getting to know new people from our church in Jackson.

Thanks for your prayers for us. We managed to stay pretty healthy (except for the e coli we apparently carried with us from Cote d'Ivoire!) and all the meal prep went well. We got to enjoy lots of yummy American food, thanks to the box mixes and snack foods the team brought! Here's an overview of some trip activities:

Bonding with the missionary kids by playing Risk and other board games:

Attempting to be African by carrying large, heavy objects on my head:
Dancing and singing with the village women:
Visiting a man who makes pots, ladles and other items out of aluminum:
Attending a soccer tournament, which was occasionally interrupted by random sheep running across the field:

Visiting God's bridge, a natural rock formation:
