Well, here we are again, I am sitting in my usual place, at the table under the fan in Ghana contemplating where to begin! Who of us would ever have thought the world would look like it does now?

Fighting the termites!

I am sat on a small stool in our open porch area with the heat pouring through the open walls and the dust and wind whistling around, as once again I embark on trying to share a few thoughts and moments from our visit to The Kings Village in Ghana. This is my 15th year and Terry’s 11th year working out here.

Exciting update on the clinic!

For many years the only medical facility serving Singa and the other overseas communities has been run-down and very neglected. This building is now fully refurbished and operational.

Clinic is finished!

In January this year we went back to northern Ghana with the express aim of getting the derelict clinic in the overseas area (across the Volta river) not only renovated but made in to fully functional clinic that would bring healing and hope to an otherwise forgotten group of 10,000 Ghanaians.
