What a blessing we have had in Gift and Grace. Glenn and Liese Ripley, the veterans on our team have been our hosts since we arrived in Zambia. They are the couple who live at the Farm. They have two adopted Zambian children, Gift & Grace. Since we arrived, Caleb, Gracyn, Gift & Grace formed an instant bond and have been the best of buddies. This has really served to take some of the stress off of Kerri and me. Instead of trying to deal with the emotions of coming onto the field, while at the same time, help grieving children adjust to a new culture; we only had to deal with the prior. We are so thankful for the easy transition their friendship has provided for our children.
Equipping believers to fulfill the great commission through serving on mission in Africa!
