I thought I was going to have 2 months in Grand Rapids to catch up on things, but it turns out that the Lord had me block of part of that time for a translation consulting workshop in Togo, West Africa. Since our consultants are already stretched to the max, it was decided that I should do this workshop by myself. I have done two workshops with the Haitian Creole OT, but those were with the oversight of Dr. Bernard. This is my first opportunity to conduct the workshop by myself. It’s also my first workshop in the NT. Dr. Bernard feels that I am ready for such a task, if I prepare myself thoroughly before I go. Please pray for that preparation to go well. They sent us 12 translated books. I won’t be able to get through all of them–not even half of them–but I would like to get through a number of them so that we don’t get too far behind.
You and the Lord will do a great job with the workshop and maybe you can take speed scrabble with you.
