my sweat glands work very well

I am sure for many that is too much information but today I sorted the boxes etc that I have shipped. My goodness it got very warm, job is done thank goodness
Cathedral is having a Harvest (fund raiser) this Sunday so each evening this week there is a one hour gathering, singing, prayers and an address talking about donating etc and our responsibility in that as a lead up to Sunday. I am so impressed that everyone knows the words to many many many hymns as they can sing for a long time with everyone knowing the words, not like Canada where the book is very much needed,                              Ghana still a very oral society.

Eye Clinic

Mother Felicia has been working on establishing an Eye Clinic in a suburb of Sunyani for the past couple of years. A couple of funding proposals have been sent out with no success. I thought that maybe a better grasp of language about Eye Clinics might increase the success of proposals.  I found an online Certificate course on Eye Clinics. So I registered and just finished the last module #10 and submitted my answers. Whether I pass or not is really not important as I have saved all the readings to refer to when writing the next proposal... here's hoping

Advent...Christmas is coming

 DECORATING ALL DONE

today a day of rest

a 7 hour bus ride on Wednesday and same on Thursday makes one a little weary
On bus  Wednesday, seat mate was a detective, I wondered whether she was a judge as when I eavesdropped on her phone conversation she spoke about High Court in January ??? what did I know
When she saw my collar, she said Oh a clergy man, I quickly said woman, she smiled

school in Berekum

got a drive to the school site with Fr. Josiah (he is taking a visit back to his home in Nigeria as  he is a missionary from there) so I thought I best get my pics while he is still here

school is progressing, walls are up, someone has donated the doors which are to be installed yet
It is still very rough but you can see it is slowly coming together.
Three classes,
 the wall between two class rooms will be left down for the moment so the bigger space can be used for meetings etc
