What God has been doing, is doing and where we see Him moving in The Gambia
I have now been in the US for a month and after a time of rest and refilling I am spending a lot of time re-connecting with my church family and many of you in North Carolina. Thank you all for your prayers. This last season has been difficult, but I believe that there isContinue reading “What God has been doing, is doing and where we see Him moving in The Gambia”
Transition
I have used the word transition hundreds of times over the last few weeks. Our teammate Deb Newsome who served in The Gambia for many years transitioned to be with the Lord in heaven this past week after a long battle with cancer. Praise God for many gospel opportunities as we shared with her GambianContinue reading “Transition”
God’s Promises
Many things are going on right now in our ministry. The planner in me has been struggling, up until a week ago LOTS of things were completely up in the air. It felt like nothing was coming together and there were about 50 balls spinning over my head. Yes, I know and trust God isContinue reading “God’s Promises”

Oops!
Well, after many hours we finally got our huge (maybe a little too big) water tank on top of the tower. But, it did not stay there. Praising God that no people fell and they tell me the tank is ok also. Fyi this tower is 18 ft high. If you wonder what I repeatedlyContinue reading “Oops!”
Holidays
Today and tomorrow are public holidays in The Gambia as they celebrate the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting. This morning as I watched thousands of men and young boys (a few older women were in the crowds also) filing out of the mosques in their new holiday clothes my heart was overwhelmed byContinue reading “Holidays”
