Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!

To all of the followers and readers of my blog, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I tahank you all for your continued interest in my life here in Ghana. And I give you my most sincere appreciation for your continuedf love, support, and prayers. They have helped me navigate and push through some of the challenges that I have faced here in Ghana, and they have helped make my first four months in Ghana some of the most rewarding months of my life. For all of my readers, I hope and pray that 2010 is as fruitful as you wish it to be and that God may bless each of you and be with you in all of your endeavors.

I apologize if these last four blog posts are replete with typos, word omissions, or awkward phrases. I have been very busy and was trying to get as many of my thoughts down as possible before I leave Accra for Kumasi, and unfortunately that may have caused me to compromise the neatness and sharpness of some of my writing. Nevertheless, that is no excuse. My inability to update my blog frequently and consistently is a travesty and embarrassing, and I am sorry. I am not promised much access to the internet for the next five months, and I can only realistically expect to have access to an internet cafe about once or twice a month over the next five months. Nevertheless, I promise to update my blog when it is possible, and I will try to continue to add pictures.

Thank you all - family, friends, and loyal supporters - again for your continued interest in my Ghanian adventures. I can never guaranttee eloquence or neatness with my writing. Nevertheless, I think everyone can appreciate my honesty in relaying the ins-and-outs of my time here. I hope this blog is as interesting to read as it is rewarding for me to type. Again, may God bless each one of you, and Happy New Year! Or as they say here in Ghana: "Afenhyia Pa ! ! !"
