Jan-Jam: Thank You

2020/02/18 By Kim Lawson

Home again…for most of us anyway.

A few team members have extended their time away to visit family and/or discover other parts of the world. Bruce and Mira have stayed in Carpenter because of their roles with hospital landscaping and hospital equipment coordination.

From the beginning of our journey as a team, we were very aware of the love, prayers and generosity of those we were sent to represent and to work with. Thank you!

We were tested and encouraged. We celebrated and we mourned. We laughed and we cried. We worked and we played. We gained perspective. Our faith, (and for some, our muscles!) grew stronger in so many ways!

We will miss gathering under the gazebo with our Ghanaian friends as testimonies are shared, prayers are raised and The Word is shared. May they know that we, the tender people, are forever united with them in Jesus’ name. We pray at the dawning of each new day, no matter the weather, we will remain strong together and remember to keep it simple, follow the golden rule, and be steadfast and fruitful for years to come.

By His grace, for His glory and in His name, a huge thank you to everyone! Jan-Jam.


United. Stronger. Together.
Until next time…
