update

Sallam malekum
Everything is good here our shipment came last week and we are in the process of clearing it, in other words paying lots of money to the gambian government, that will never go to the gambian people. O well God is good and in control. We are so blessed and happy to be here and serving God, the work among the muslims is hard though. Their hearts are so calloused to the gospel, that is seems even though they understand the truth in it they are not willing to accept it. However God is still stonger that their (and our own) calloused hearts. The video club is comming close to ready to open, probably in the next week, Brufut fellowship is still going stong but there are some spiritual attacks and not as many people are attending. Andrea and I are trying to learn mandinka. It is going ok but we both know that we have to move to an area where mandinka is only spoken to learn it fully. A cool story... a guy named Modou lives next to us, he is 19. I hang out with him a lot and i have told him the gospel and a lot about christianity, but he is still a muslim. He went away this weekend to work on clearing a plot of land. while he was there these missionaries showed the Jesus film at night in mandinka, his first language. he loved the film and was really excited. I thought that was awesome. God is totally working in his life through different people pray for him, i have to go to the Port now

love all you
