Another visit from home

I couldn’t resist posting these pictures of Chloe…some of my favorite ones.  Her personality is emerging more and more every day J 

 

Also, here are some pictures of Pastor and Mrs. Van Gelderen with us.  He held a two-day conference at Living Hope Baptist Church in Sabga for the national believers (and a few of us missionaries).  It was a tremendous time of teaching, Q&A, and prayer. 

 

Then on Sunday Mrs. Van taught Abby’s children’s Sunday school along with some of the Needham girls helping.  Pastor Van taught the adult Sunday School and preached for us as well.  We had them over for lunch, and then Pastor and I went to the Babungo Bible study while Abby, Sarah, and Mrs. Van stayed back at the house to fellowship.  It was a tremendous day for all of us.  Our church had custom made for the Van Gelderens a bamboo sheet with a reminder to pray for Cameroon.  

 

Today, we begin our annual missionary family conference, and Pastor and Mrs. Van Gelderen will be speaking to all of us.  All the families will be staying in Sabga this year…both at the Needhams place and in a few rented houses down the mountain.
