One week left!

Time is almost up at the International Learning Center. We have one week left and will be leaving next Thursday. It is hard to believe that we will soon be on African soil and starting from scratch learning a new language and new culture. Last week, we asked you to pray for our Washington DC trip and that God would send us witnessing opportunities. We had a great time and the Lord give us many situations that we were able to share the gospel or leave a tract. Teresa witnessed to a Buddist from Vietnam who was open to conversation and also a woman from Guinea (West Africa) who started reading the tract before we left her on the subway. I was able to speak to several people from Ghana, China, and Ecuador as well as one man (Larry) from America. Several others, we only had time to put a tract in their hand before they dashed off in the busyness of city life. Several of these encounters were no doubt provided by the Lord so thank you for bringing us together with them through your prayers.

We had lunch at a small West African restaurant that was owned by a couple from Ghana. The food was authentic and represented what we will likely be eating where we are going. The food was good but there was one item called Fufu that was a large ball of fermented cornmeal. You dip a piece of the fufu in a peanut sauce before eating. However, the peanut sauce did not cover up the taste of fermented cornmeal. I have posted a picture of Autumn at the restaurant and our visit to the White House later in the day.

Hope you have a great day.

Blessings,
