In my limited experience I have come to the conclusion that Senegal is a land of extremes. Some of the most beautiful sights I have ever beheld have been in Senegal, yet, some of the most shocking scenes have been there as well. The same holds true with my experiences emotionally, spiritually, and physically: [...]

This past trip to Ndiadiane (sometimes N’diadiane) was once again a life altering experience for me. I had the oppotunity again to be involved in women’s ministry.

Happy holidays to everyone! It has been about two months since the Eastern Hills Bible Church (EHBC) November trip to Senegal, but it still seems like it was just yesterday. This was my first trip to Ndiadiane (sometimes N’Diadiane), Senegal and I was not really sure what to expect. I assumed that we would be going [...]

Greetings again from Senegal! We enjoyed a delightful day in the village today. We were humbled by how God has worked, through us as human vessels. We participated in a ceremony to celebrate and dedicate several recent projects (the community garden with drip irrigation, the millet grinder, new wells, and a fence-making machine). We also [...]
