We have been very sleepy and short on internet, but we wanted to share a bit of African color. I love that Mangoes just fall from the sky here (though they are not quite in season right now), so mango trees this huge give me joy (compare with baby swing in foreground and Kimberly by the trunk).
James and Joel are at their second youth event right now (a boys’ sleepover). We’re reaquianting ourselves with getting around and buying stuff, working ourselves into the right times to be awake, and fighting Kim’s cold.
I will be traveling on Monday. Please pray for health, safe travels and flexibility for me, and for health, safety and good acclimation for Kim and the children while I am up country. For all of us, please pray that we would be wise and have favor in each of our interactions, both with other expatriates and with Cameroonians.

Love the picture! I especially love the beautiful smile on Kim’s face. It’s so obvious that the joy of the Lord is her strength. The mangos remind me of our trips to Tampico Mexico when I was younger. The mangos were also huge and delicious! We’re continuing to cover you all in daily prayer. I hope you are feeling much better, Kim. My mom gave me a recipe for a tea to drink when I feel a cold coming on. I’m not sure if you’ll have these ingredients, but if you do, maybe you can try this tea. You get a red onion & peel outer layer, cut it into 4 pieces, then slice up 2 lemons, cut up 5 cloves of garlic, put them all in about 4 or 5 cups of water & boil for 10-15 minute. Let it cool for a bit then drain the tea and add 2 tbsp of honey. Drink the tea warm & try to enjoy ?. I always feel better by the 3rd cup.
