I'm not scared of a Croc.

This trip is going well. The mission team this time (which includes Eld. Turner, Pastor Taylor, my wife Mary and myself) are having some great experiences. We took Eld. Turner and Pastor Taylor to the Elminia Slave Castle to see and hear the history of slavery. This stop is always an emotional time for all that experience it. We spent the night in the city of Elminia. We had lunch at a great place that was surrounded by water and crocodiles. When asked if I wanted to touch the crocodile, I quickly accepted the challenge. I touched and rubbed the back of a crocodile. And not just me, Eld. Turner and Pastor Taylor both did the same. We are some fearless men of God! We had a good time. The convocation started on Friday Night. The theme of the convocation is "Appreciating our Pentecostal Holiness Heritage". The convocation started off with a bang. The Host Pastor, Superintendent Anim preached quite a message on Holiness. Women's Day was on Saturday Morning. Evangelist Ester Mensa brought the message also about holiness. She is from Africa, but now lives in Canada. And oh, Saturday night was Youth Night. Just as before, the youth were live wires and on fire for God. A very young pastor, Pastor Joseph Quainoo preached the message. Sunday is official day and we will be having Holy Communion. We're expecting a great downpouring from God. Just to share a few fun things: Eld. Turner has danced at every service. He is really enjoying himself. Also, the weather has been perfect here. It is has been sunny and great during the day, and it cools off at night. It's probably better than in Kansas City. Continue to pray for us. God Bless. Pastor Sims
