Okay, I'm in Accra, Ghana right now, and I stayed at the Shangrila last night...sort of fell short of what I would have imagined the name to be...but it was a bed and I got a solid 4 hours of sleep (which is a marathon in comparison to the last few days!) before I came to the airport at 4:45 am to make my 6:00 am flight...which I found out got delayed because of weather to 9:00 am, would have loved 3 more hrs sleep..
But, as you can see, I have a cup of (instant) coffee here at the airport...last night at my one star hotel, I got a little frustrated that my cell phone wouldn't dial out, no internet connection, probably the most alone I've felt so far...but felt God's presence and His covering...we need those times to just simply trust Him! I also can't tell you how much I appreciate all your FB correspondance and e-mails...I feel lifted up by you all!
This morning (evening there) I got to Skype call my family with a video feed so I feel a bunch better, got to talk to Dave Federwitz too (the Family I'm visiting) and he is ready to meet me at the (final) airport in Tamale and we will drive the 4 hours to his house...I figured I will have traveled over 14,500 miles just to get to this first stop... Please pray that I can be an encouragement and blessing to this family...Might be out of internet connection for the next few days, so stay tuned...Blessings in Jesus' name, P. Mark
