Pray for Dr. Faile and his Family

October 9, 2007 by William

Yesterday Dr. Faile’s mother passed away while visiting her sister at a hospital in Georgia. Please pray for him as he travels tomorrow to the US for the funeral. Also lift up the hospital staff in your prayers. He is the hospital’s only surgeon and will be gone for 1 1/2 weeks. They are trying […]

My First Day

October 8, 2007 by Heidi

The day began at 7am with devotions for the hospital staff, delivered in both Mampruli and English. Afterwards, I got the tour of the medical center and then we started rounds. First, we examined the babies in the pediatrics ward who were hooked up to IV’s. Then, we sat in the middle of the room […]

Trey Gets a Nanny – Heidi Starts Work

October 8, 2007 by William

Heidi started working at the hospital this morning at 7:30am. I haven’t see her yet but I’m sure she’ll have an exciting report of what she saw and did. The other volunteers here are constantly raving about how much experience they are getting. I could tell she was getting quite and anxious to get in […]

The Death of a Chief

October 8, 2007 by William

Before this trip I prayed for boldness. Boldness to step out of my comfort zone. Boldness to share my faith. So at about 10pm last night when I heard some drumming off in the distance I decided to be bold and find out what was going on. I grabbed my camera and started walking in […]

Photo of the Day

October 8, 2007 by William

I take many photos during the day and try to sort through them all in the evening – deleting the bad ones, flagging the good ones. I’m going to try to post a favorite from each day that I take photos. The beauty of photography is that it captures a real moment – a real […]

110 or 220?

October 8, 2007 by William

In the same way the US hangs on to feet and pounds when the rest of the world uses meters and kilograms, the US has a different voltage of electricity in their power outlets. In the States, your plug with two long rectangles produces 110 volts at 60mhz. In West Africa, the outlets come in […]

Baby Dedication

October 7, 2007 by William

This morning we went to Nalerigu Baptist Church where they were having a baby dedication. Apparently they keep the name of the child a secret until they have the dedication at church. The pastor then gave a mini-sermon explaining the name of the child and invited people to guess. This baby’s name means “God With […]

House #7

October 7, 2007 by William

We sure can’t complain!  House #7 has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a gas stove – that is so much better than our own house in Florida!  The house is furnished with the basics and even a playpen for Trey.   Our no A/C training in Florida has paid off as it is quite warm and […]
