Sunday Worship



Here we are after worship Sunday having lunch at Dr. Fiakpui, a gyn who lives in Chicago. His family hosted us for lunch after a very long worship service. It started at 9:30; we arrived at 10 AM and ended worship at 1 PM. Most of us took videos so you'll have to wait a bit to enjoy the photo of the actual service.

Our host, Rev. Dr. Seth Agidi, an Eden grad, was preaching the sermon in honor of the retired manager of the Kekeli Hotel on the church compound where we are staying. It was a joyous celebration and a great lunch afterwards. The drive from Ho to Alavanyo was about 2 hours so we were happy to get out of the bus and dance in church.

Our program continued in Ho after supper where the program officers of the EP church shared with us about the women's, men's and youth programs. We were all tired and happy to retire after the program.

We have airconditioned rooms with ceiling fans. Some of us have turned our air off during the night because it cools off enough to sleep comfortably without it. The cold showers feel wonderful in this heat and really don't feel cold at all....

We are missing home, of course, but have found a new home among the Ghanaian people.
