Heading Out to Do the Work....
28 juni 2017, Senegal ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F
Today we head out to the boarding school. Meet the man who is going to plow the fields for the planting of the sorghum and peanuts and deliver the shoes to some of the children.

We had some setbacks as Elhadj's brother had been in a near fatal accident, lost his transportation and been in recovery for several months. Yesterday they were able to rent a vehicle so will be able to get around today.

Also with the celebration of Koritae, which is a national holiday here in Sinegal, there were no workers at the school. The US equivalent would be Thanksgiving/Easter from the standpoint of how it is viewed and celebrated.Meer informatie

Thanks to the generosity of those in our church, friends, and families; we were able to bring three duffel bags of the shoe that grows for the street children. The sandal expands out to five sizes and is designed to last up to five years.

Here is a video link from the company that designed the shoes

The Bugs Here are NO JOKE!!!!
28 juni 2017, Senegal ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F
After the rain yesterday, the bugs seemed to have multiplied by the thousands! Even in the restaurant, that table was crawling.... literally at some points. I ran across this snail on the way back to my room in this fancy hotel. There were dozens of them every where. Today should be an experience as we head out to the villages and more rural areas...Meer informatie
