Living Waters for the World-water filtration system
Today the Ghana Mission Network began officially. Many church officials from the Presbyterian Church of Ghana and the Evangelical Presbyterian Church came to address the meeting. I enjoyed hearing from them and the good work they are doing.
Lois and I reported on the 10 strong years of our partnership in Ghana. We told stories, read specific facts and joined in a round of Da na'se led by Mama Alice. I personally was humbled to hear our partners, like Mama Alice and many others, talk about the good work that we have done together. God is doing amazing things in our midst.
We also heard from Living Waters for the World, a project of the Synod of Living Waters. The people who presented had previously installed a water filter system a few blocks from the Akrofi-Christaller Institute where we are staying and meeting. It is so great to hear about what other people are doing in Ghana and the strong partnerships they have as well.
In other news, the food is still wonderful. Jolof rice with plantains for dinner tonight. That will definitely have to go on my regular menu. I also have a recommendation for a local seamstress who can make a Ghanaian skirt for me. Mission work is a tough job but someone's got to do it!
Team two arrives tomorrow. We will be doing some workshops on aging and dementia. Then on to Tema when the rest of the group arrives on Saturday. I guess I have to finish my sermon at some point in there.
