another Saturday in Dakar































  • We've had many rainy days recently. Dave took these pictures from his office windows during one of them. Dakar is dry most of the year, so the streets are not really constructed with drainage in mind-- which causes significant problems during heavy downpours.
  • The school year at Dakar Academy has started well, and it's been an honor to spend time with several students who are seeking encouragement, support or problem-solving-help over the past days.
  • Our electricity has continued to be off about eight hours each day, and my computer is not yet working reliably... yikes! Praying that we will allow the Lord to be light in our lives even in the darkness... that His light will shine in us and through us to those to whom He has brought us!

Those are wonderful! I can't remember the last time I saw rain in any of your pictures. Maybe when the boys were really little at ELWA! Fun to see a piece of Africa. :-)

I've been a poor commenter--but praying for you during this time of transition.
