Rest & Preparation

Rev Asante stopped by a little while ago - on his birthday no less.    It was good to see Daniel and his son, Sulamon.  We caught up on several fronts and talked about the schedule for this week.

Tomorrow will be a very long day.  We will take a meeting with the clerk of the PCG in the morning at 9 and then immediately afterwards head up into the coastal mountains to Akropong for a follow up visit to last year’s installation.  From Akropong, we will drive across the mountains to Kibi for a follow up visit to the installation we did in 2015.  From Kibi we will head to Kwahu Praso.  A lot of driving.

Now - here is where it gets interesting - Linda Dor, the rest stop that I call the “Stuckey’s of Ghana,  has the fish soup so many of you have asked about, so if you want the recipe just let me know.  I do know it starts with 1 whole Tilapia in a bowl - head on!

Thursday, Friday & Saturday (1/2) are all about the installation and training that is taking place this week at the Presby Health Clinic in Kwahu Praso.  Charles gave us a little bit of foreshadow earlier today in that the clinic has already identified two key distribution points for the pure water outside of the clinic.  One is the school across the road from the clinic and the other will be made available to the general community - looking forward to hearing more about this.

The second part of Saturday we will travel back to Accra via the Presbyterian Women’s Center in Abokobi which was Idlewild’s first LWW water treatment installation and health & hygiene education.  PWC installed a new ROS (takes the salt out of the water) a few months ago that works in tandem with the LWW water treatment system.  ROSs don’t last forever and over time become less and less efficient.

Sunday we will be worshiping at Rev Asante’s church starting at 8 and going until....?  This is the part of the trip where I “bank” Sunday Service hours for the entire year.  If all goes as planned this Sunday, I should not have to worry about attending church on Sunday until 2019!
