Finally Here!

Well it seemed to take a long but we are finally in Senegal. The whole
trip took around 30 hrs. We left from JFK and flew into Milan, Italy.
We spent a number of hours there waiting for the flight to Dakar. The
highlight of all the travel was looking out the airplane window and
seeing the sun rise over the Alps. Treacherous and beautiful at the
same time.
We used the time in transit to go over our teachings and coordinate
things. We went into downtown Dakkar to change some money today, and it
was wild! One word, chaos! I am still adjusting to the time difference
too. The spirit of slumber is heavy over this place. If you have been
to Africa, you know what I am talking about. This country is like 95
percent Muslim.
Communication is a challenge here, Andy speaks some French, and the
contacts here in Dakar speak very little English.
We will be traveling south to Oussey soon, the main purpose for our
trip. There we will be teaching the church about spiritual warfare.
There will be some translators for this task. Tonight we will pray and
worship and hopefully tomorrow we will have a guide take us south. [we
will have to travel through the Gambia, hopefully without any issue]
Keep us all in your prayers. So far an interesting adventure!
