We spent this past weekend at Gushiegu. If you follow the blog you will see that Gushiegu is one of the Seed Ministry outposts. Right now there are 24 clubs in the area and the coordinator is a man named Matthew.
It takes 3 hours to get to Gushiegu. To get to a club around Gushiegu, it may take up to 1 1/2 hours to drive. The terrain is farmland that is mainly for animals. The huts are spread apart which is different from around the Tamale area.
We were only able to visit 17 clubs because that is all we could reach by bus. The remainder can only be reached by motorbike. Emmanuel was quite nervous seeing some of the paths, but because he is such a good driver (best in the Northern Region) he had no problems.
On Sunday we visited a church that was 1 1/2 hours from Gushiegu and was located deep in the bush. It was nice to see the church here, even though the majority of the villages practice traditional religion. After Toby preached we visited the Bible Club that meets at that village. One of the exciting things as we went from club to club was to see that the leaders were using the training tools that Seed Ministry and the team that came in December gave them.
Love the update! Tell Emmanuel he is one of the best drivers anywhere! Love and prayers to you all.
