Helping orphans, reaching the lost and needy

Two new members of the family...

We had a visit from a couple in our church the other night and in the Cameroon tradition, they brought a little gift with them. It just happened to be two live chickens, more specifically, a rooster and hen! When she handed me the bag I was expecting some yams or bananas (much more common) but imagine my surprise when the present squawked at me :). It was very sweet as the family are extremely poor and it really shows the generosity of our brothers and sisters over here.


Our two dogs have been getting used to "Rocky and Ginger" (10 points for anyone who can guess what movie that's from), everything good so far. We're really hoping they can keep the bugs down in our yard, lots of ticks and cockroaches, (yucky I know). Josh and Seth have been having a blast with them and maybe we'll get an egg sometime soon too, who knows...
