In addition, if you haven\’t visited our website lately, we invite you back! I recently sent some new material back to the states with a friend, so that content should be available sometime next week.
We\’ve had a few days lately when the \’yellow flag\’ of caution has been flying by the front gate. This means we should only go into Bouake if absolutely necessary. Yesterday we even saw the \’red flag\’, meaning \’Do Not Leave Campus\’. With the French military living among us, we don\’t feel threatened in any way. Here in Cote d\’Ivoire, tensions are rising as another deadline has come and gone without any real progress towards peace. Another important date is this Friday – the beginning of disarmament – which is unlikely to happen because of the lack of progress in trusting each other. Please pray for peace in Cote d\’Ivoire.
This week the French troops will be \’changing guards\’. Those soldiers who are here will be replaced by different soldiers. Please pray that the seeds which have been planted in those who are leaving will bear fruit, and that we will have many opportunities to sew more seeds with those who are coming.
