Ghana 2017

If you can't tell, we're only a little excited to be returning to Ghana for the fifth time! Join us as we take a team to minister in different ways to the Ghanaian people!

Tomorrow we depart from Atlanta for Ghana! We are so excited to be taking our team of eleven, about half of whom have never been to Ghana before. We'll be there for two weeks, returning to America on the 31st.     

a och3 Deaf Outreach

We once again have the amazing opportunity to do a Deaf Outreach in Jasikan. We are so excited to be able to use American Sign Language ("ASL") to communicate with the Deaf and share God's Word. We will have two teams, one sharing the gospel through interpreting ASL. The other team will be teaching ASL to those who are Deaf and have no language, or those who are hearing but have come with a Deaf person.

Baseball Outreach

While in Jasikan, we will be doing more than just the Deaf outreach. In the afternoons, we will be teaching the local youth how to play American baseball! We are excited to have three friends coming with us that are baseball players, and are excited to share the sport with the youth in Ghana!

 a och 5Christmas Day Outreach

By far one of our favorite ways to spend Christmas day is serving alongside Meaningful Life International in a remote village in Ghana. They use this day to build relationships with a village where they are building a church. This day is filled with crafts, singing, games, food, sharing the gospel, and building relationships.
                 We'll also spend time in the orphanages and with the Esther's Hope ladies, continuing to build relationships with them. We will also have an awesome opportunity to go to a friends wedding while in country, a very cultural experience! 

Ways you can be praying for us:
1. Unity as a team
2. Safety as we travel
3. We would be quick to listen to God's plan, even if that means a change of our plans
4. Jesus would shine through us through our words & actions
