The dates are set!

Hi again,
The dates are set for our trip to Ghana. We will depart the good 'ol US of A on July 6th and be back on the 23rd, Lord willing. July is a good month for traveling in Ghana as the rains are just starting which cool off the evenings. The country also begins to get very HOT after July. We should be able to get much work done at this time.

A note from my friend and brother in Christ, Ernest Apeadu

Tim, It gladdens my heart to hear that you will be part of Campaign 2011. In July 2006 you and 3 obrunis: Bill Dillon, David Stearsman, Rick Kenyon and 9 Ghanaians helped make Campaign 2006 possible in the absence of Ted. As you rightly said... in your write-up after the campaign: "This trip will change your life." 3 congregations were established. 400+ people were given medical care. The preaching and the spreading of the Gospel was glorious; and the unforgettable life-long friendships that were made. If all these accomplishments do not change one's life what else could do that. We always long for July to come. And as you promised 5 years ago that you were ready to come again, we are also "eveready" to welcome you and the U.S. brethren on July 7th. With the Good Lord on our side Campaign 2011 will once again be productive, efficient and enjoyable to the glory of God. Your life will change again. You will surely add value to your life. God bless.

Back to Africa!

Hi all, It's been 5 years since I worked in Ghana for Christ. I have been working in the Panama mission field and now feel a need to get back to work in Africa. When I was there in 2006, our small group was blessed to start 2 churches, bring medical aid to thousands, and the Gospel of Christ to even more. I would like to revisit the Christians that were converted last time around and see how the work has grown. I hope to be able to widen the cause of Christ even more this time. We plan to concentrate on personal work, gospel meetings, and construction of church buildings. I'm sure we will be preaching in many remote places again, too! If you would like to see the blog from the 2006 trip, follow this link: http://ghanaquest.blogspot.com/ I hope you will come along as I blog my way to Ghana. Please pray for the work. If you would like to help with the trip financially, you will be a further blessing to the mission.

Please contact me if you would like to get involved: tvsimmons@comcast.net In Him, tim
