"I wish I could hug Africa but I don't think I'm tall enough"

Hi everybody this is Scott. Our first day in Africa was great! We thank God for safe travel. We attended a church service here and it was incredible. I loved that chickens were running around just outside the door the whole time. I don't think I have ever been to a church service without air conditioning before, much less chickens running by just 10 feet away. It made the service just seem that much more real and honest. After the service we were playing frisbee with a few of the people outside and we noticed a perfect circle rainbow around the sun. It was incedibly beautiful and no one had ever seen a rainbow like this before. Pastor Daniel even said "It is a miracle from God because he is pleased you are here." Later we met with the board member's of the church and they welcomed us. "AKWABA!" (welcome in Fanti) We have been incredibly welcomed and love it already. I can't wait to see what God has in store for the coming two weeks! Check back for more.
