It was a great time together as a family.  This is my parents 3rd visit to Senegal so we decided to take them on a trip with us.  We took them down the southern part of Senegal to visit 2 families who are working there.  It was a great opportunity for them to get a picture of what travel and ministry is like for us.  They did special things with the kids from these families while we met with the parents to encourage them in their ministries.  It was a great time all around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li
