Keeping the Train on the Track!

Since I last wrote I've gotten lots of emails from friends in Africa-----Malawi, Kenya, Liberia, Rwanda!  I feel like the spoke of the wheel.  In my head is experience, relationships, trial and error lessons, knowledge of what is working and what people expect, and yet  as I have told you before, I must decrease in order for someone else to increase.  Who has God called to keep this train on the track? 

IF ONLY, you could read my emails.  IF ONLY, you could see the library at Rwanda Institute of Evangelical Theology. (Oh, they need good books, and it costs us $90 to send 20 pounds of books.)   IF ONLY you could be a fly on the wall when Jean Paul and Addy told me how they long for good books to read, but they simply are unavailable even if they could afford them.  Amazon.com doesn't work for them!  IF ONLY, you could listen in as T.S. a church leader in Liberia talked with me on Skype and told me how much the Evangelical Church Union of Liberia (ECUL) appreciated our respect of the church's decisions regarding guiding the students that EAFC helps support.

Yes, I care deeply that the train stays on the track.  But I have other assignments these days.  I'm teaching both as an adjunct and teaching piano.  I love what I do.  But I love helping people in Africa too.  

I think I'll close by showing some pictures of faces of some I've mentioned.

The man on the right is Nathan.  His daughter is in pre med, being supported by the church and EAFC.
With him is Eleazar who is part of the partnering church for others in Liberia that we help.

The lady on the right is Priscilla.  She's across the continent from Liberia now, studying in Kenya.  Her husband, not pictured is also studying.  They need our prayers.
Also meet Musa, form Sierra Leone!
