Hello everyone we have arrived safely in the Gambia. It was a long journey, drive from incline to San Francisco, flight to Washington, and then flight to Dakar Senegal our first plane was delayed so we almost missed our second flight, but they waited for us and we were the last passengers to board, after running through the entire airport of course. Once in Dakar we took an 8 hour taxi route to Banjul where we are right now. It was a difficult journey but we thank God that we made it. So far life in Gambia is as we left it, very hard. We are going to Bansang next week so please pray we will find the garden ok and that we will have good relationships with our host family. Also pray that we are able to finish the mission center and that God would provide a national missionary to come along side us and learn about the garden and be willing to join in the work that is going on in the Bansang area. We are now trying to readjust to Gambian life and are slowly adapting once again. It’s nice to have a couple days in the city to just get used to being back. Our friend Hayden Moore is here with us now, he will be staying in the city area but it is nice to know he is around. We have been able to meet up with friends and are feeling fairly welcome. Not too bad of a change. Anyway, of course we miss you all, and we thank you once again for all of your prayer and support.
we will really try to update this regularly
love tom and andrea
