almost Christmas

pointsettias-blog This is the view across our dirt driveway from our dining room window!
We just got back to Gamboula Friday late afternoon, and Roy had been having a vaguely sore mouth for a couple of days, but nothing like Friday night. Sooooo, he is back in Yaounde to see the dentist. There happened to be a mission airplane here yesterday, to drop off Christmas visitors and Benny Turk, who had been away at school in Yaounde. Hopefully Roy’s tooth problem will be resolved at the dentist’s on Monday morning, and he will fly back (he’ll have to charter the plane – ouch!!!) on Christmas Eve.

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.
