here in sierra leone...

Just a quick post to say I arrived safe and sound in Freetown! The airport arrival here is always an adventure. Since the airport is across the bay from the city, you have to take a ferry, helicopter, or boat across. The helicopters were shut down for safety reasons...a good thing! So, a friend of Faye's got us on a speed boat! Loading up on a speed boat on the beach with all my heavy luggage surrounded by Sierra Leonans wanting to help (for $$). Welcome to Sierra Leone! We made it back to Cami and Faye's place safe and sound. It is great to be here and catch-up with Cami, Faye, and the ministry here. Not sure how much internet time I will get, but will try andf post again before too long. I am here until Friday, 1/26. Thanks for your prayers. Peace!
