Just One Touch!

So I received a comment from Norman last week about a picture of me in my last post. To answer your question Norm, Yes, I am sporting a mohawk. It was my girls idea but I actually liked it. Kelly on the other hand hated it and so it only lasted until my next haircut.

While we are on the subject of hair I thought I would show you this photo of Lyndsey. She is sitting with some of the African children who visit the hospital on a weekly basis for a Bible school day. The African people (adults and children) are fascinated by the straight hair of the Yovoh (white person), this little girl couldn't resist Just One Touch touch of Lyndsey's hair.

This is a young lady I saw coming to the Bible school, I have seen many of the African people carry things on their heads. This is the first person I have seen with their Bible on their head.

I will try to post more photos later today,
