Had a great day today and yesterday visiting schools. It strikes me how much we have in the US and how much we complain. The Burkinabes we met are working so hard in order to provide some education to 1,000's of children. The students often sit on hard wooden benches, in 105 degree heat with no fans, 80+ to a classroom, no paper but only mini chalk boards, and one teacher. They are tough and driven! There is a lot of need here, but the people we are meeting are amazing!

Heading down to Burkina today! Looking forward to seeing the great ministry there and launching a new work.

Made it here to Paris. The journey to Burkina will continue tomorrow. I'm thankful for a evening to rest and get a good night's sleep.
