Camping with the kids at Ludington!

Oh what fun!!!  We enjoyed a few days’ camping with Josh, Kimia, Maddie, Maia, and Emrie.  The 2 older girls climbed the lighthouse with me, all of us getting a bit spooked out on the spiral see through stairs, but we DID IT!  blog lud blog lud1 blog lud2We had lots of time to just enjoy each other and God’s creation, and even got to hear about birds of prey and see 5 of them, up close and personal, including this golden eagle.blog lud3 There was a smaller lake (smaller than Lake Michigan) just over the hill at our campsite, and Maia and Maddie tried out their new masks etc.blog lud4I want to, too!!!! says Emrie, although she mainly waddled around the campsite like a little duckling, but nothing ugly about her!  She’s as cute as they come, right?blog lud6 me tooblog lud5 Hiking and playing were on the agenda, as well as early morning fishing each day!blog lud fishing blog lud hike
The mom has to be all eyes as the kids play in the big waves in Lake Michigan – cute hat, no? blog lud eagle eye lifeguardblog lud8 We had to go see the ferry come in and madly wave to a boat full of people we don’t know and of course climb on the rocks!!

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.
