Some have asked about the climate in Ghana. You can find that info and more at this site. Basically, there is a rainy season and a dry season in northern Ghana where we will be.
As it stands now, we'll have internet access in a building near our house, but not in the house itself. I know here in America, we don't think of having anything but 24/7 access in our own home. So, we'll just get on when we can. It will be a huge ministry for us, a huge way to stay in touch with you all.

Preparations for Ghana
Quick Post-We leave San Angelo on Nov 13th and fly out of D/FW on November 16th for Ghana. This is a country in West Africa. We are committing to about two years initially and will see how the Lord leads from there. We still have much to do in getting ready to leave. Joel will be working at a mission hospital in Nalerigu, Ghana. This hospital is partly run by the International Mission Board (IMB) under the Southern Baptists. We believe Father called us go to this area to work at this hospital, but to go on our own instead of under any organization. We thank you for your continued prayers. I hope to blog more once we get to Ghana.
We are only taking a small number of black trunks by air freight. So we need discernment as to what to take. Toothpaste, kids' clothes and flip flops (for two years), a large jar of garlic, school books-these are just a few of the items we will be taking.

The Ness Family Visting!
We enjoyed a recent visit with Lori, Hannah, and Michael Ness. What fun we had!
More Disney Pics
Colt had such a great time at Disneyworld. He was definitely at a good age to enjoy much that the parks had to offer.

Disneyworld
Mom spent her birthday (Sept. 5) flying with us, Jay, Dana, Jason, and Kennen to Disneyworld in Florida. Colt had a great time, as did the rest of us. This was a great time of year to go. It was not as hot and there were very few lines.
Colt was hoping to get to meet some cool princes who had protected their castles. By the look on his face with those pretty princesses, you can tell, though, that's he's not too disappointed to be with some pretty girls!
