So, why are we going to
Africa? Ever since our visit to Ghana in 2001 we
have had a desire to return. In 2005 Carolee was invited to join the
board of directors for Wycliffe Bible Translators of Canada. In the
last few years board members have been urged to visit a translation
project in some part of the world. That has led us to plan a trip to
the countries of Burkina Faso and Ghana. If you check the map below, you will find that they are next to each other, south of Mali. We will be flying into Ouagadougou. We know Wycliffe
workers in both places - Sharyn Thomson in Burkina, Dan and Dianne
Dzokotoe in northern Ghana, in the city of Tamale. We are looking forward to spending time with them and learning more about Wycliffe and Bible translation.
Welcome to our Africa blog! We leave on October 23 and return to Winnipeg on November 24. The trip includes 2 weeks in Burkina Faso and 2 weeks in Ghana. This blog tells the story! If you are new to blogs, you should know that the most recent posts are added at the top of the "HOME" tab. You may want to start reading at the bottom to get the sequence. At the very bottom of the page you will see "older posts" which means you can go back even further by clicking on it. Check out our links!
