Days 1 & 2

Monday 6/14

Amazing...is the landscape in Liberia. Green everywhere. We have landed in a country decorated with rainforest and canopy. The Atlantic is to our West, and we were fortunate to be able to swim for an hour in the surf. It was a refreshing bath after about 48 hours of travel. We swam, ate dinner, now it is sleep time. We are bunking in an ELWA guesthouse arranged by African Bible College. Finally...sleep other than on a plane! Tomorrow is an 8 hour drive to Yekepa.


Tuesday 6/15

Amazing...is the evidence of poverty on the road to Yekepa. We left early this morning, and saw camp after camp of block huts, shoeless children, and parasitic water wells. All of which were broken in some way. I anticipate more of this, and at a greater magnitude.
We had little to no interaction with Liberian people today, as the day was spent traveling. Tomorrow we will meet with some of the students and administrators at ABC University in order to plan the outreach events which will begin Thursday.
