We Zs have escaped the 90 degree heat of West Michigan and are enjoying cooler temps in Cameroon, Africa!  Our flight out of Grand Rapids was delayed 2 hours, yet miraculously we and all our luggage made all the connections – GR to Chicago to Brussels to Yaounde, Praise God! 

Now we’re setting up in our “new” house, rented by Covenant World Mission.  It is close to a major road, so the sounds at night are honking taxi cabs and barking dogs.  We have purchased many household and furniture items from Pete & Cindy Ekstrand, Covenant missionaries now living in Congo.  They used to live in this house, so it’s good to have things that belong here.  I’m going through boxes and trunks discovering all the things we bought, and some unexpected surprises too (nice surprises).

It’s good to be here, will be better when we settle into a routine.  Thanks for praying us to this point.
