Been a nice break


So for the past week or so we've been enjoying the good life here in northern Cameroon with Krista's parents. Going to the pool everyday, eating lots of french fries, fruit, and ice cream; watching movies, and playing games. Well, it will soon be a thing of the past as we return to Chad tomorrow, but we've enjoyed it while it lasted! We're grateful to God for giving us this time to get away and relax a little bit before starting back up with the work. What a great time it's also been to be with grandparents for a whole week! Thanks to those of you who play a crucial part in supporting us which allows us to make such a trip as this one to Cameroon.

A fun visit

Over 600 believers being "dunked" recently in the river that runs by the capital city!

Two couples recently came out from two of our supporting bodies in the States to help with our annual conference. We also had the opportunity to bring them to our village and see the work that we are doing with CFM. Here we enjoying a meal with the men and below you'll see pictures of Krista and with the other women as well as Josiah with his friends enjoying the meal!




So we're here in Cameroon, enjoying a bit of a break from Chad, along with Krista's parents. We've already enjoyed the many fruits and vegetables we're able to buy from the local market, as well as the electricity and running water. But, one of the best things has to be high speed wireless internet! So I'm posting a bunch of pictures that we would not have been able to post in Chad due to our lack of internet access there. Will write more later, but for now enjoy the pictures.
