We are praising our Lord for:

• All the things that God has so graciously taking care of in our life in Ghana.

• All our many supporters - your prayers, your gifts, and your love are truly appreciated!

• The wonderful time of furlough in the states - what a wonderful time to reconnect with our family, friends, and supporters!

• Our first orphan, Abena, has adjusted well to her new home in the states.

• A number of like-minded ministries here in Ghana with which we have networked and partnered.

• A Ghanaian pastor, Pastor Gaisie, to shepherd the flock at Frafraha Baptist Church, and to head up the church planting ministry.
• An American Church (Grace Bible Church in Adell, WI) to "adopt" the church planting ministry of FIM-Ghana as part of their international outreach.

• Our Ghanaian nurse, Dinah Kwao, and her work in the rural villages.

• Several teams coming to visit in the next several months!

• The Lord's graciousness at every step of the way!

• That we have the opportunity to bring God's rich mercy to the orphaned and needy in Ghana!!!  To God be the Glory!!!

• The many struggles of living in Ghana.
• God to raise up American Churches to partner with us in our various ministries.
• The provision of American missionaries to partner with the Ghanaian heads of the Church Planting ministry, Medical ministry, and the Orphan Care ministry; in particular, we are praying for an American doctor to assist with the medical ministry.
• The continued financial support necessary to minister in Ghana, and for additional partners to assist in helping us to remain in the field.
• The start-up and needs of the House of Mercy Children's Home, and for the needs of the infants that will be coming under our care.
• More families, individuals, and churches to sponsor beds in the Children's home, that we might be able to provide the necessary medical, living, and dying needs of the children in our care.
• Our children, that the Lord would help them with their schooling, and that He would provide deep friendships with other children here.
• For more opportunities for our stateside representatives to handle the many duties stateside, to share about the ministry, and for additional partners / churches to join with us.
• Please pray that God would use us to minister Christ's mercy to the orphans of West Africa, and that He would be pleased to show His glory through this ministry.
