We finally found an Internet hot spot!

Well, I can understand the frustration people have here with the Internet! We have not been able to find a workable connection since we left Tamale. We are now in the second largest city in Ghana: Kumasi. The adventures with the Bishop and his people in Wa were amazing and overwhelming. Their warmth, dedication, and intelligence was very impressive. They were so grateful for the communication tools we brought but their Internet connection was not good. The Bishop has asked first for a better solution for them. I'm doing research and will need the help of all those in the parish who know about such things. Thank you in advance, Bill Weber and your team at JPL for your interest in this problem. I know we can help them with this. They are eager to connect with our parish and have set out goals that are about a sustained, mutual partnership. We need their constant and unrestrained warmth and love. Everywhere you go peopel wave and smile. It really feels like one happy family. We met a couple of American students who commented on how the Ghanians were so much friendlier than anyone else they came upon. More later...
