Basket Weaver in Osu. Such a nice guy, he learned from his grandma, and mother. Has made baskets his whole life. He showed me his book of pictures, he will customize one for you....wonder
If I will have room to take one home?...
I saw some of the straw in a bowl as he was dying it, and laying it out to dry.
This is actually a picture taken by Sister Bullock, but it was so cute I had to share. We see
this each day too. Cute family they are lucky and privileged to go school. Each
School has a different uniform for every day of the week.
Another way to travel to work.
Huge coconuts! On the way to street-side vendors.
A motorcyclist going by yelling, "ressurection" one Sunday afternoon.
We see these horseback riders every once in a while going down the road.
These cute little girls were at the church building in Adurajuri picking up the wood that wasn't
used in the renovation . I told them I had a headache just looking at them.
This lady is getting water from the well behind her. Water is life and they are so grateful for clean drinking water. And so are we . These wells are such a blessing to the villages.
Classic sight on the road. Trees being transferred that have been carved into boats for the fishermen. There are two goats tied on the top enjoying the ride.
Trees that have not been carved yet. Huge old trees..
These cute little girls were watching us as we had pulled over to the side of the road waiting for someone to meet up with us. They kept peeking around the corner so I went over to ask their mother if I could give them a sucker, and take a picture. So cute....
Gifty Tagoe, Emmanuel , and Edwin Otto right before they all left on their missions to Nigeria.
Gifty opening her mission call... She had to have Lynn read it for her. She was way too nervous.
Our two good friends Gifty, and Selina Ayim
Our friend Bright, he now lives in Takoradi. He was visiting the temple.
Alema Sunday night dinner group , such a great group of friends. We feel so blessed
to be with these wonderful people.
Our dinner group with Dr. Logaan from China. He has been in Ghana teaching for a year,
And was baptized into the church in December before going home to China .
" Days for Girls " an NGO service project for young girls in villages.
After talking to Alexa (my daughter in law) she said they had just had a service project
at church for this same project. :) It has come full circle!
Sister Cannon and me.. It was quite hot in here!
Donated fabric...just a small part of it.
This lovely lady is Bernice, she is the one that started this project. Bernice is a wonderful
Seamstress with a small business who sews for a lot of the missionaries . In her "free time"
She serves a lot of people in so many ways. She travels to different villages and teaches about
Hygiene, and being chaste to the women and girls. Sweetest lady around.
Love these wonderful ladies!!
And so another post is complete . As I say each and every time I am so grateful for my ( our )
many blessings and the opportunities to serve others . May the Lords blessing be upon all of you!
