A Few Pics From Liberia!

 
We are here in Liberia!  We spent the first week in Gbarnga, and now are back in Monrovia for the Haven Children's Program.
It has taken over an hour to load just a few pics with our slow internet.  I will try and keep posting a few more in the next few days. It may have to wait until we get back to the states next week.
We have done so many things so far, but here are a few highlights....
In Gbarnga we passed out school supplies, candy and cookies to the village school, close to our land.  My husband and my pastor, gathered a few strong men and built a very large swing set, with funds donated by a family, for the school.  What a blessing for the whole community!
We had a large group of us on our land, several pastors and family members, hold hands in a large circle spending time in prayer and dedication of our land.  This land God is going to use in a mighty
 way!!
We also had a dedication ceremony at the school for the swing set.  The singing from the 300 students was precious!
Here are a few pictures of our first week...


Barry and I were a bit excited to see each other:0)
