Moving On

Tansega: Tuesday(11-23), the final day here also marked our final day with the whole team. The plan was to stop work a bit early and go to see patients at our HCJB Global Voice radio partner, RED.

On Wednesday (11-24), the group will split up. Lee Sonius will head back home to Accra, Ghana. One part of the team, including Steve and Dorothy Nelson, Jessica McMillan, Emily Martin and Rebecca Weber, will hop in a van travelling three hours south to the border of Ghana and cross over to assist another radio partner, Peter Awane in Bolgatanga. They will be met at the border by missionary Joseph Kebbie, HCJB Global radio trainer who also lives in Accra.

They will see patients and children with Dr. Steve, Emily and Jessica working up the medical side. Dorothy and Rebecca will have a whole new crew of children to minister to. They return to Burkina Faso on Saturday (11-27) to rejoin the team, minus Emily who flies to Accra to plan and strategize for her full-time return.

In the meantime, Doctor Xavier Sanchez, Dr. Dora Leon, Sheila Leech and I will stay in Ouagadougou and work in a medical clinic on the outskirts of the city where a lady named Joanna has a community health clinic associated with a school, orphan care and microenterprise as well.
