Liberia Today, Uganda Tomorrow

When I went to Liberia last year I met Sainkolo. He among others was a very good student. From time to time I still communicate with them. It is touching that a prof (as they call us) who was there only two months could still be remembered.

Recently Sainkolo and I were chatting about my latest dream, shared with you in the previous post.. This led him to realize he knows a man of  integrity living in the States he could connect with me. He did, and now I am communicating with his uncle. Today at 2:30 our time, the uncle will meet others on our team, exploring the possibilities of his learning a business by which his family and those he cares about can be blessed. And then, he will be able to that knowledge to one of those fastest growing economies in the world that Bill Clinton spoke about.

Tomorrow I speak with a lady who has entertained me in her home in Uganda. She and her family are currently living in the US. Their hearts are still "home". Her husband is back in Northern Uganda right now for a month. I don't know much about their plans, but I do know that financially providing for your family is a longing for most parents of the world, regardless of where they live.  I know the hearts of this family. They too would take their skills back to Uganda and transfer them to men and women there.

I have a friend in Kenya who is trying to help me. I am trying to get with my dear friend in Malawi. There are over 50 countries on that vast continent. Yes, the people there just like those here need Jesus primarily, and that would be the ultimate goal. And yet, beginnings, meeting needs along the way, getting to know people, working with them is often how we can participate with God in His work on this earth.

One last point,I REALLY DO WANT TO KNOW WHICH AFRICAN NATIONS BILL CLINTON WAS TALKING ABOUT WHEN HE SAID 6-7 OF THE WORLD'S FASTEST GROWING ECONOMIES ARE IN AFRICA.

CAN ANY OF YOU HELP ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIND OUT THE DETAILS OF WHAT HE WAS TALKING SBOUT?

What I Learned From Network Marketing Pro

This post might sound a bit unusual to those of you who have followed my blogs since I began it when in Liberia.  I too am even surprised and full of hope as to where this thing is going.

Personally, I believe in a Sovereign God who orchestrates the events of my life, so my watching a network marketing pro who sent me to watch a video clip of a speech by Bill Clinton was not an accident.  I have read Nelson Mandela's book and was inspired by it. It is definitely worth your time if you haven't done so!

But what struck me in Bill Clinton's speech was his statistics, YES, YOU GOT IT RIGHT, HIS STATISTICS.

HE SAID THAT 6 or 7 of the world's fastest growing economies ARE IN AFRICA.

Some of you know that I have recently discussed with friends of mine ideas about how we could be a part of blessing Africa economically. Personally, I want overflow of how God blesses me to go to EAFC, but that is really a different subject for a different day.(can't make my cursor move to the end)


What I want here is to encourage you to watch the Bill Clinton clip, and if you don't know how, email me and I will send you the link.

EAFC needs HELP!

EAFC, that is Educating Africans for Christ, is FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  But in order to stay fine, we need administrative help in the office in Jackson, Ms.  Lots of you who read this don't live in Jackson or know anyone who does.  So what can you do?  "JUST PRAY!"  Isn't it awful that we add "JUST" to prayer!


I think networking is an amazing tool of our time.  Will you talk to someone who might know someone who can get back with us?  I'll get the information to the right people on the board.


WHY is this important?  Well, without someone with a heart for this ministry with skills to communicate with churches and students, keep up with our website and a million other necessary skills, we won't keep THRIVING.

AND we WANT to THRIVE, not just survive.


Since 1997, this ministry has helped people all over the continent.  I think I'll attach a recent THANK YOU we got from Malawi.  be back in a minute/ let me copy and paste it.  OK, so I did it, but as you see I don't know why it pasted the way it did!  Enjoy anyway. ha!

Greetings from Livingstonia!  Let me begin by apologizing for not giving you regular updates as is expected of every EAFC family member.

I am ashamed for being irresponsible and I am asking for forgiveness. This aside, God has been good to us. I must be honest that we are missing you people. May the Lord continue to watch over your family and the ministry of EAFC. By choosing to invest in our education, God has honoured your act of faith. I want to share with you three things I want to share with you in brief: 1. Joyce and I will this month be submitting our PhD Dissertations for examination

It has been a long and tedious process but God has seen us through. Thank you once again for your prayer and monetary support. It is by grace that we have reached this far today. 2. I was promoted in October, 2011 to the position of College Deputy Principal. I only served in that capacity for 4 months and was elevated to the top position of Principal following the retirement of the founding Principal. Joyce continues to serve as Dean of Faculty of Education. We asking that you continue to pray for us so that we may provide leadership with wisdom from above. 3. Both of our daughters are doing well in college. They all testify that the three years they spent in Kenya under the sponsorship of EAFC really prepared them for secondary education. They managed to pass well and secure places in colleges for training. In addition, both are growing and increasing in the grace of God.  May He increase as we decrease. Moses
