A Chicken with Three Hearts?

July 16, 2015

Chicken hearts are one of our family’s favorite treats, but there never seems to be enough to go around. After all, each chicken typically is only equipped with just one.

Worshiping God with our fellow believers

July 15, 2015

One of our favorite things we have had the opportunity to do here is attend the local churches. Getting to worship God along side our brothers and sisters is a true honor. Sometimes we’ll sing a song in French, Wolof and English, and there’s always some people singing in sign language.
