We are all wildly excited this week! NO SCHOOL! And we are traveling to the coast for our annual Spiritual Life Conference (SLC). This is for all SIM Missionaries in Senegal. A team from the USA is coming to provide the leadership. We will leave Kaffrine Tuesday and return next week.
Please pray for safe travel for all and a deeply refreshing time of spiritual renewal at this conference as well as good fellowship with our team mates.
The week we get back, Alexia will arrive from Switzerland. She will be here to teach all the children (and me!) French for an hour each morning for two months. In the three missionary families, there are 6 children who will be involved. She will also be tutoring Bennie, our Country Director, and the Scholarship children who attend local schools. For information about the Scholarship Children see http://garrett.with.sim.org/links.html
Pray for our French classes and for Alexia’s adjustment to Senegal from Switzerland!
Thanks so much for your prayer and financial support!
Dear Janie,
PTL. Go, have a good time and i trust that the tutoring that will come after the trip will be a god time as well.
I have purchased my return ticket to AD for April 27th and am VERY excited about my return. MD says I am about 80-90% well from the lymphoma for which I give HIM the praise. Nancy will be going East as well and traveling around that area, Turkey, Nepal, etc – she is developing a ministry with Christian Aid as well as her consulting work so we are eager to be back in HIS business! Keep us informed.
Hi Janie!
Enjoy your time at the SLC! I pray it’ll be a time of refreshing and encouragement for you all! I’m excited about your opportunity to serve there and am glad to hear that it’s going well!!!
Warmly in Him,
Bob Hay
