Togo

My time at the Missionary meeting also called Advance was a wonderful time of worship, fellowship and learning. The Father taught me many things through the times of worship and the classes I took while I was there. Thank you so much for all your prayers, I don't know when my next update will come so please continue to pray for us as we go out and continue our work.

Henna

The women here like to have black feet, not just there normal color but the put henna on their hands and feet and then use a chemical that turns it black so Rachel and I had the henna tattooing done to our hands and feet. The girls who did the designs are amazing artist; they look at a picture and then paint it onto our hands and feet with no stencil or anything. They also use only a little plastic bag with the corner cut off to draw on out feet. It wears off in a few weeks and I will have to have it redone but here are some pictures so you can see how creative these girls are.

Market

We have been meeting and sitting and visiting with friends at our house and at their homes. We also meet up with one friend at market ever Sunday. She sells food at her little shop there. Market is quite the experience; there are people everywhere, animals all over the place and things you never thought you would see are all at market. Here are some pictures.

Jake

Some of our team mates decided to go home and they could not take their dog so they gave him to me. He is a four month old German Shepard named Jake. He had not eaten much since the Blessings left but he is now and is gaining back his weight that he lost, and he is getting bigger everyday.

Our Home

The house was ready for us to move into. All of our things were there and the electricity was hooked up. So we stayed. We spent about the first week unpacking and organizing our house so here are the after pictures.
