Planning for Ghana - 2004

My Calling Came in August of 2002, just before I married Allison in December. At that time in my life, I didn't know what God wanted me to do. So I sat down one day with Alli and prayed (for the first time) "I will do anything God, where do you want me." And i knew God wanted me to go to Africa in that moment. Allison was more than ready to go. My degree in Bible and Theology is from Lee University, where my mother teaches Computer Systems.
Alli and I have been working for 2 1/2 years since we first began the process to leave for Africa. We knew we would have to have good jobs here to save money, so while Alli taught elementary music, I worked commission paid jobs at Circuit City, Sprint, Select Comfort, and for the last year operated my own business selling toys at malls, flea markets, and state fairs. I am very glad that now I am done selling retail, which would be my last choice if I could start over. A friend of mine always said "necessity is the mother of invention." [November 3-2004]
