Sunday

We wanted all the adults in the picture,
so Caleb was our photographer. Thanks Caleb!
This is our group at Amandines today.

Hi. We had a fun weekend getting to know the McKlurkins. Pete & Debra have come to Mali for 1 year to be the guest house managers. We're rejoicing because now we are free to do our ministries. We are thankful for the Mcklurkins who now have a bit of a learning curve ahead of them. They've been to Africa before, but Kenya, not Mali. And they will be starting french study with language school we've found here for them.

Saturday night we had a fun time with them and Eadelmans playing a card game called "Hand and Foot". We also shared testimonies, and enjoyed getting to know one another better.

Sunday we had a service here. We watched a video "How great is our God?" this is an amazing peice of work, and really makes you see the grandeur of God in nature and science, as well as focusing in on His signature written in every one of us as creator/designer. We were all impacted by this message this morning.

We went to Amandines for lunch. Mcklurkins' first time to go to the restaraunt mecca here in Bamako. When you visit, we'll take you there too... :D

Please pray for Pete & Debra as they are just getting started out here. Pray for Ernie & Jan as they are working to finish well. Pray for us, Tom, Lisa, Caleb today as we ride the bus down to Sikasso, pick up our car, and drive to Kadiolo.

Thanks for stopping by,
Tom & Lisa
