It's Morning. Let's Take a Walk.

Many of you have asked questions about African life.  As you have probably figured out from previous posts, there is a lot of diversity here.  There is affluence and there is extreme poverty, seen many times right next to each other.   Up the hill in front of our apartment is mostly affluence.  A couple of blocks to the left and to the right are slums.  The poverty in the city is different than the poverty out in the villages.  But it is still poverty and it breaks your heart.

Each morning Kathy and I go on our morning walk....have to stay healthy, you know.  We have pretty much settled on a route that we take every morning.  So, I thought you might enjoy going with us this morning and see some of the diversity we see every morning.

You will see very affluent houses with tall walls and razor wire and some not so affluent.  You will see construction, some currently on-going and some long abandoned.  You won't see much of the slums on our walk, but you will see some scenic views of the city.

Thanks for walking with us this morning.  I just wish you could actually be here to experience it with us; to be able to talk about what God is revealing to us as we walk.

Blessings,
Edd
