Our sweet WA family

Posted on March 31, 2012 by danforth

We had such a fun, wonderful, joy filled week with our son Sam and family.  Sam, Anna, Elaina, and Sawyer are an energetic crew and we had the chance to see them at work and play.  We got to see Elaina and Sawyer in action at their co-op school,including tumbling and ballet!

We built a treasure trove of memories to take back with us to Africa in a couple of months.  The time flew by too quickly, visiting Sam at work at the Moody hangar, and playing games, from basketball to board games to sardines.  That was my personal favorite.  Sardines.  Ever squish 5 bodies into a 3’x2′ dark corner?!?!?  It was hard to say goodbye, but we look forward with eagerness to next time, maybe in Africa!

About danforth

As Covenant missionaries, we are working with all the tribal groups of the Central African Republic (CAR) but are trying to give special attention to the Fulani, a Musxlim, cattle herding, and semi-nomadic people group. We live on an experimental/training farm, near a mission station which has a hospital plus bible and nursing schools. We are establishing relationships with the local people groups through compassion ministries; Roy through agriculture and Aleta through public health and visitation, in order, ultimately, to share the good news of Jesus the Messiah with them. CAR is one of the least developed countries in the world and is currently in continual crisis (since the coup in March 2013), so reaching out in compassion is key to reaching their hearts. Due to the ongoing conflict and resultant ethnic cleansing in CAR, we are crossing the border to interact with our Fulani contacts.
