Tsevie Prison gift bags

A number of us (adult crewmembers) have been going to Tsevie, a suburb of Lome, to visit the prison there twice a month. Last Saturday was our last visit. However, the ship shop onboard the ship has been overwhelmed with supplies from Texas, and requested permission to donate some of the soaps and toothpaste to the inmates we have been visiting. As a result we sewed a couple of hundred bags, coupled with a donation of bags someone sent the ship, and Bill Foley stuffed 254 of the bags with 2 items each and a Bible verse for the inmates. We are so pleased to be able to give them this parting gift. We also obtained about 25 French Bibles and some devotional books for the pastor who is imprisoned there to use to lead Bible studies. God’s provision is wonderful!
