update

Well, we are still not the new house. We are still waiting on the well but there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. A dim light but it is a definite light. We have painted now and Tom has finished all of the plumbing and electrical and everything is all ready for us to move into. Currently we are in a period of rest. We have decided to take a few weeks off and really seek the Lord’s guidance for the rest of our time here in the Gambia. It has been quite a while since we have heard God’s voice directing us on the things we are to be doing. We feel it is a good time right now to take that time and really try and listen and rest and fellowship with other Christians that are here in the city area. That is one thing that is lacking in Bansang for sure, fellowship, but, God is so good and we continue to trust in Him.
Another wonderful thing that has happened recently is that our shipment has FINALLY arrived. AMEN!!!! We had a few problems along the way. Like Not being told that one particular form needed to be filled out before they could even send the shipment off and not realizing until mid July as we are waiting patiently for our shipment to come and wondering why it isn’t here yet. But it is here now, and hopefully we will get it soon.
Please be praying for God to really speak to our heart in this time of rest. Pray that He reveals His plan to us and that we actually recognize His voice. Also please pray for health for both of us as Africa takes its toll on both of our bodies. And once again please continue to pray that God would raise up an able Gambian to take over the work in Bansang. We do have a few in mind, we are looking for confirmation.
Thank you guys so much for all of your prayers and support. God Bless each and every one of you.
Love, Tom and Andrea Loeschner
