Update on Chris in Cameroon Feb 2016

We been able to speak with Chris a couple of times.  He traveled for around 36 hours before he actually arrived at Mbingo hospital.  He spent a couple of days getting acclimated to the area and spending time with some of the missionaries that are there.  On Sunday they had a Super Bowl party.  (He of course had already experienced the game on the actual night it aired, but enjoyed the fellowship with the people there.) 

He was able to work in the outpatient clinic for yesterday and did some rounding in the hospital.  At this point he is just taking it all in.  He is seeking to understand where he fits and what will be his main area of focus while we are in Cameroon. It is only day 3 in the hospital so I told him not to worry.  It will all pan out.

Chris says that the area is beautiful.  The hospital is in the Valley of the mountains. The landscape is a little brown right now due to it not being the rainy season, but there is fresh produce available all the time. He was able to have some tacos yesterday with fresh avocados, tomatoes, and lettuce.  (That totally made his day.)  If he can have Mexican food Chris can live anywhere.

Please pray for Chris's time in Cameroon continues to be informative, safe, and enjoyable.   We thank you for your support and cannot express how much it means to us.  I will update again when I know more. Have a great day!

With Chris being away from us for this time it brings me constantly back to remembering our families motto: The Will of God will not take you where the Grace of God cannot protect you.
