There is nothing new in Abidjan. As you can see, our road is still flooded so Autumn decided to go floating! As I said before, I don't know why they think it is necessary to get in that nasty water to take pictures. We are always looking for something to amuse ourselves!
We have became soccer fans the last couple of weeks. The World Cup started mid-June and it is being held in South Africa. Cote d'Ivoire was in the top 32 teams along with USA. They never played each other so we were able to root for both of our teams! Sadly, now both teams are out. So, we have picked the only African team left to support. Go Ghana!!
In less than 6 weeks our first team from the states will be in Abidjan!! We are excited! We have also seen how much work it entails, but it is worth it! The team of 10 will be working in one of the quartiers (neighborhood) called Ancumabo. Pray now for the team and the people that they will come in touch with during their time here. Pray for their travels and health. Pray also for us as we have many things to get done before they arrive. Most importantly, pray for hearts to be open to the good news of Jesus Christ!
Enjoy your Independence Day this upcoming weekend! I'm not sure what we have planned but I need to check to see if the Embassy is sponsoring anything this year.
Blessings,
Teresa
