Sponsor a Child Today! Tuesday, October 19, 2010. Through working with Compassion, we have learned that malaria is the #1 killer among children in Africa. Almost every 30 seconds, a child dies from malaria, a totally preventable disease. I look at my children, and can't imagine if we happened to live in another part of the world, what devastation we would face. In our family, we have asked ourselves what we can do to make a difference? And learn more about what Compassion is doing! One Act (Must Watch!

The Bacak Nation: Waiting on a visa
http://bacakblogginit.blogspot.com/2011/08/waiting-on-visa.html
Sponsor a Child Today! Sunday, August 14, 2011. Waiting on a visa. So, I know I've neglected to update here, as I promised I would. Do you ever feel too sad to go public with all your emotions and tell cyberspace exactly how you're feeling? That's been a lot of this summer, and I chose this time to revive my blog. Ironic. But I know it's time to update so many who are praying for our Ella to come home, and ask you to pray specifically. Obviously, we left our Ella in Ghana. We will have a party! She didn'...

Sponsor a Child Today! Sunday, August 28, 2011. Let me update you on the progress of Ella’s visa…(deep sigh).well…there is no real update to give. She has an appointment at the Embassy tomorrow, August 29th, and we hope to know something after that appointment. However, we have learned that this Embassy is completely uncommunicative and only gives us conflicting and confusing bits of information via e-mail. So answers and timelines are extremely hard to come by. 1 Waiting with truth. We need to be me...

http://bacakblogginit.blogspot.com/2011/09/its-our-homecoming-day.html
Sponsor a Child Today! Sunday, September 11, 2011. It's our homecoming day! Watching the sunrise this morning was exciting. Here I sit, in the same spot I have sat for the more than a month, every morning. I have pleaded with the Lord in this spot. I have battled hopelessness, anger, frustration, and sadness. I have wrestled with them, and have run to the Lord and His Word. Ten days ago, I wrote in my journal as I sat here,. I'm watching light spill out on another morning, and Ella's not here. And I know...

Sponsor a Child Today! Friday, July 29, 2011. Finally.a post from Ghana. Akwaaba. We’ve heard that word many times since coming to Ghana. It means welcome. The people of Ghana are very welcoming, and so hospitable. They are a beautiful people! I think the women are striking, and the children…they are the images I will always keep with me. Why don’t we just strap a baby on our back and go? We must seem so silly to them! But mostly they are carrying what they are selling, or transporting some kind of goods.
