More "Foot Prints" on our life

---

A Short and Sweet stay.

What a HUGE help! … And… What a God Send!
Dara, a nurse by profession, has returned to the US with MANY stories to tell. Leaving last week, her time with us was a short four weeks. Though short, her time was packed and eventful.

Several years ago I learned a lesson about courage. “Courage doesn’t mean the absence of Fear. It is rather, moving ahead in the Face of Fear”. Dara displayed much courage and confidence in our Lord. Her stories will include topics such as (though not a trained teacher) typing, giving, grading and reviewing final exam papers, strange African viruses, sharing dinner dishes with neighbors - to include eating rat more then once, a time the villagers thought we were lost in the pristine rain forest, and by far the most exciting story - killing both a black cobra and brown snake.

On behalf of all the students of Child of Excellence Primary School, “Thank You Dara for your obedience to the Lord!” You’re time has left permanent “footprints” of your presence on their hearts and lives (and ours). They will never forget you, as I’m sure you will never forget your time with us. God Bless You and lead you.

Thank YOU!
Christine and Apebouso- Thank YOU. I could never tell you all what the last month meant to me! Thank you for all the experiences and sharing your lives with me.
