This morning most of us went to a 7:00 am church service in Bamenda, where Dan Eriksen gave his testimony and the church rocked with the music and dancing.
After we packed ourselves and all our stuff into a bus, we started toward Yaounde. About 1/2 hour outside Bamenda, we stopped for lunch at the home of Achete Achu, the former prime minister of Cameroon. He is a benefactor of CEFED, Magdalene's ministry. His wife, Esther is on the CEFED board. We were honored to be their guests.
Speaking of honor, Saturday night we were guests at Magdalene's home for dinner to celebrate the end of our ministry in Bamenda. She presented each team member with a shirt or dress made of traditional-patterned material. With each, she spoke a few words of thanks and blessing.
Now we have ridden 8 hours in the bus and are back in Yaounde. Tomorrow, our ministry begins at Monique Bessomo's center.
These work days are long and hot with lots of heavy lifting. Please pray for God's strength and refreshment and that we would be protected from injuries.
We love you all and miss you. And we have lots of stories to tell when we see you again.
