i head out this morning for a month-long trip to west africa.
i will be covering some food distribution in villages in mali, and then heading to cote d'ivoire for some more coverages, meetings and a little bit of tutoring in french.

please pray:
for discernment
for wisdom and understanding
and
for not-lost luggage.

we do not understand the wickedness of our hearts;
nothing but the power of God in the gospel can deliver us.
