What Encouragement A Short-Term Team Can Bring!









 We can't begin to express in words the benefits we have received from the Northside Mission Team that recently visited. So many things happened. Let me name a few, we:


  • taught children about the importance of personal hygiene.
  • played with the children.
  • prepared sack lunches each day.
  • received gifts from the village - (Bob received a Gonja smock, guinea fowl and yams)
  • met with the village health team
  • washed the feet of Saliu, our newest story-teller working with the Fulani. We gave him the Fulani NT in audio format as well as a water purifier to help improve his health.
  • told the children stories (Tony really got into it.)
  • observed how they make FuFu, one of their main foods.
  • created a bicycle water pump to help fill the tanks at the village water purifier the team previously installed.
  • taught personal hygiene at the village where we hope to install the next water purifier.
  • enjoyed great fellowship.
  • participated in the naming ceremony for Isaac's new baby girl.
  • celebrated Terry's birthday.
  • visited the market.
  • had a lot of fun
Thanks Northside for a wonderful time of encouragement and service. Thanks team for a job well done.

God was truly glorified through you and your sacrifice. Amy and I love you and really appreciate you.
