End of revival services.

It’s almost bittersweet that our revival services are finished. It was such a great week where we got the chance to know the church very well. As Pastor Titus said when he spoke, revival services are for the faithful of the church to be recharged and revived. Our prayer is that God does this in LCMI and the members in turn share this renewal with others. It will be nice to have an evening off again. We’ll see if our schedule stays open.

Our day started early as Mike and I were up before 7:00 with Mike making his French press coffee shortly after we got up. Its nice that he shares as I enjoy it also. Before breakfast was ready I walked over to where Wintee was working by the kitchen area and I found her frying pancakes. They were just like the Swedish pancakes my father used to make. Needless to say I really enjoyed them and so did Jenny and Mike.

We waited around a little bit as we were going to ELWA when Emmanuel and Wintee were ready. This waiting gave us time to play with a neighbor girl, Esther, who comes to see us, at least the last two days, in the morning after breakfast.

Jenny always seems to have something to play with for them.

We left for ELWA (Eternal Love Winning Africa) which is where the hospital that Wintee was treated for her broken leg is located. I had the opportunity to drive there and back with Mike, Emmanuel, Wintee and Jenny riding along.

We dropped Emmanuel and Wintee off so they could go have her leg X-rayed to see how the progress is going. (The doctor said it was looking good, but she will need to walk with at least a cane for a year). She’s a very patient lady and I’m sure she’d love you to pray for her.

We drove Mike around ELWA showing him the guest houses we’ve stayed in on previous trips. We even stopped by the beach and went for a walk along the beach. I know Bobbi will remember the good times here with Micah and Luke.

It was very relaxing walking along the beach even if we weren’t able to go swimming.

We went back to the hospital to find Emmanuel and we took a walk in the garden area. It was sobering, remembering the reason this new hospital was built, which was for the Ebola outbreak from 2014-2016.

Liberia has been through many difficult times with the civil wars and then Ebola which was a devastating time.

We found Emmanuel and Wintee and we headed back to the house. It would soon be time for our last revival service.

The service went well and we really enjoyed the meal along with everyone else enjoying also.

We are now headed to bed and we’re a little tired so I’ll end now.
