"O LORD, our Lord, How
majestic is Your name in all the earth," --Psalm 8:1 NASB

Adidome, Ghana
Our team has finished our first full week of ministry. We have worked in 89 venues, including nine (9) dental clinics and fifteen (15) film crusades and have recorded 14,846 indicated, first-time decisions for Christ.
What an amazing privilege God has given us to be involved in His glorious work! The entire team continues to be humbled by the fact that God allows us to be here.
The work continues to be difficult. The weather is hot and humid and the roads are getting worse and worse. Most often there are no roads at all. Yesterday our Land Rover overheated in the bush and were forced to get water for the radiator from mud puddles and other standing water. By God's grace we made it home to find a cracked head gasket and damaged head. Our director, Sammy Lartey sent for a mechanic in Accra (four hours away) who came, brought the needed parts and has been repairing the vehicle all day today. Please pray that all of the work is completed so that we will have use of the vehicles next week.
Dr. David Ney leaves Accra today for his flight home. Please pray that he has safe and uneventful flights home. If you would like to send him a thank-you note for this selfless work here, please send it to info@gemonline.org and put Dr. Ney on the subject line.

Our team continues our ministry tonight with two more film crusades and will start school ministry again on Monday. Beginning then we will have three teams each day going to remote village schools. The days will be long and difficult but we are trusting God for His continued blessing.
Thank you for all of your prayers and please DON'T STOP PRAYING. We are counting on you! Until Jesus comes, I remain
Yours, in the fulfilling of the Great Commission,
