Two Tremendous weeks in Sierra Leone

Here’s a picture and video recap of my recent trip. It‘s a very satisfying experience to see the students grow. These two weeks were amazing.

Roadside sales from University of Cornhuskers.

A 2 hour ferry ride from airport to Freetown with our partners. Total travel time from my house to the hotel room in Freetown was 33 hours.

Busy market.
Hospital ship in Freetown harbor.

Delivery services. Sierra Leone has an almost infinite variety of transportation alternatives, although the back of a motorbike might be the most common.

I have a 8 1/2 X 11 sheet, PDF file of the skills we teach. If you’d like a copy send me an email.

This is at the core of our teaching. Learning skills, practicing in class, reporting, refining.

New siding on classrooms. My fellow teacher- Dick.

I locked my door on Friday night and the lock broke; my calls for help were finally heard at 8am Saturday morning. No worries, I slept through the night.

A gift from my class. They have excelled in learning to be careful students of the Bible – not adding or subtracting from the text!!
A dear student.
One of my favorite authors. What she says is very true in Africa.

Group work.

Next week I leave for two weeks in South Africa. Pray for the students as we study poetry in the Psalms and Proverbs, and apocalyptic literature in Revelation.

Thank you for praying and reading and giving. At both sites in Sierra Leone we are making great progress. Bob
