Dear Friends and Family:
It is so hard to get on the internet - I give the girls credit for their patience (a virtue I am admittedly lacking).
A new arrival: about one hour ago: two priests arrived with an approximately three month old boy who has no mother and has been rejected by the tribe. Sr. Stan named him Paul. He appears healthy and well nourished. Welcome Paul!!!
Thanks to all for your prayers for Ella. They worked - she is SO much better today. She is awake and cooing and her breathing is much better. To God be the glory.
A priest arrived from Accra yesterday. Fr. James is from the Society of African Missions and is a fascinating man to talk to. He is well acquainted with Sr. Stan's work in Northern Ghana and calls her the mother of Ghana. He gave us updates on the work of his order throughout Africa. Truly amazing.
I was in the Adoration Chapel yesterday and the door opened. About 15 of the children came in and started to lead us all in the rosary. Here I am in the presence of 15 sure to be saints - each with their own story known mostly to but God. Amazing experience to be sure.
Sarah finally received the package that her parents sent in November. How crazy is that!!
Thanks to each of you for your love and prayers. Be well. It is hard to believe that two weeks from today we will be on our way home.
Tom & Paula
