hello everyone we are still in the kombos the shipment has arrived we are now waiting for the duty wavier to be approved feel free to call or email us we miss you all

Ok God, Where is the boat?

Hello everyone,
Tom and I are still here in the city, our boat with the shipment has
yet to arrive still now, this is The Gambia and nothing goes at
planned really, it's just something we had to learn the hard way. We
were told it would come on the 20th of April and here we are in the
middle of May and still waiting. Tom has been working on a plantation
for a national Pastor to help him raise money for his ministry. He is
off working most days. We are really looking forward to getting back
to Bansang and to our own plantation. We had our first rain shower of
the season yesterday, this is the rain that the locals claim is a
warning to the farmers to get their fields ready for the season. We
won't have another rain for like a month, just enough time to get
planting. This is why Tom and I need to get back home, to plant our
own garden. But we have realized that God has a perfect plan and His
time is the best time. We hope all is well at home and we are
constantly in prayer for you all. Thank you for all of your prayers
and support.
In His service
Tom and Andrea

update

hello everyone we are here life has been hard but we praise God for sustainign us,presently we have 300 holes dug for the banana trees and we want to plant within two weeks if possible. Right now im in the city are awiting our crate to try to clear it at the ports. We have been working with Pastor Modou Camara and helping develop his own garden to empower his mininstry. We had a chance to see Pastor Lamin from Guinea last week and we are looking forward to partnering with him in the future in ministry. God seems to really be leading us to working with those two people and their congregations. We are praying and ask you also to pray with us, about starting to send national missionairys out into Gambia, there are presently a few weel equipped Gambians that are ready and many more that are awaiting training but willing to be sent. The plantations we are starting will help sponsor these missionairys, but andrea and i are also praying about starting something along the lines of a Gospel for Asia type thing, were we create pampletes of the missionairy and then maybe a video (we want you cassie and andrea to come here) which we can then use back in the states to raise funds. But we are only praying about that now and still trying to focus on what we already have to do here. We love all you and pray for you. Please pray that God strengthens our relationship here, as satan seems to attack that aspect of our lives. Also please pray God guides and gives us disernment to know his voice.

later

tom and andrea
