A Little About Me

I was saved when I was 9 years old and made sure of my salvation when I was 18. I met my husband when I was 19, he came to our church to be the Assistant Pastor. We got married a year later in 1996. We bought a house and continued serving the Lord in our home church. In 1999, during our missions conference we surrendered to Ghana, West Africa. We sold our house and spent 3 years on deputation We arrived on the field in November of 2003. I had 3 children when we arrived.in Ghana. Once we got to our house in Africa I sat down and cried and cried and cried. I think I cried for the first week we where here. I thought what in the world am I doing? Three small children and in a strange country. Did I say I cried? After I got over the initial shock, I decided I can't sit here and cry for the next few years. I began to make my house a home. We arrived on the field with only our suitcases. Praise the Lord the landlord of the house we where renting left his couch and dinning table. We borrowed some beds from another missionary until we could get some. We began slowly to adjust and make due with what we had. The Lord moved us to another place in Ghana 6 months later. This time we had beds, but no couch or dinning table. However we didn't have to wait long. Our home church sent our container and after 9 months of being in the country we had some of our familiar belongings once again. I had my fourth baby on our first furlough back home. I am thankful for God allowing me to serve Him.
