We enjoyed hosting the team for a Thanksgiving meal on Thursday evening.  Living here in Togo, we are constantly reminded of how much we have to be thankful for.  The main entertainment at the party was watching a video of Murphy and Marty's encounter with gorillas in Rwanda.

 

The other highlight of the week has been the annual Watchi women's meeting.  Maureen spent Friday night in the village with the other women on the team.  On Saturday, they all participated in a skit.  The official count was 124 women and over 100 children who participated in the weekend.

 

Jeremy became the latest victim on the team to succumb to chicken pox, and he really got a good case of it.  He ran a high fever and had to miss three days of school.  We are thankful that he is feeling much better.  Both the boys are looking forward to sports camp next week.  We plan to head up to Kara on Monday for another Thanksgiving meal, and then three days of sports camp for the kids.
