Njem story

I enjoy photography and sometimes I do think that photos speak volumes. The Njem community in Ngoila, East of Cameroon highly welcomed their alphabet, reading/writing book and the gospel of Mark & Luke. 

With these transformation tools in their hands, the community now has what it takes to bring the transformation and impact that the Church and community leaders want to see.

Knowing how to read in certainly a big blessing that we sometimes take for granted. Knowing how to read especially your heart language makes understanding especially the Word of better.  

No wonder why the Bible says in Psalm 119:130 NIV "The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple"

Pinyin New Testament

 August ending was a very exciting moment for us to dedicate the Pinyin New Testament. It was the first of its kind for CABTAL to dedicate a New Testament in print, audio and electronic formats. This is going to facilitate access and speed the reading of the in Pinyin. This will also boost literacy among the Pinyin people. 

The goodness of God

A couple of weeks ago, I began getting some noise in the car but it was not easy to figure out where the noise was coming from. Even the mechanic could not figure it out so I kept managing but deep inside me, I knew that the noise was a bit scary.

One day I went downtown, then I really noticed my steering wheel wasn't balancing very well. As I drove pass by, other drivers were so concerned and kept alerting me, pointing to my tire. I carefully packed and noticed that the tire was almost falling off. If I had just taken another road descending on a hill, the story will have been dangerous but God led me to another road.

This time I called another mechanic and although it took him a very long time to come, I had to wait. Waiting along this streets is not easy, you can't really go away for fear the council police might impound your car. You can't really sleep in the car for it was very hot and just so on.

Finally my friend Walters the mechanic showed up and checked and lo and behold the wheel was almost about to cut off. This means that my tire was going to jump out on me on the highway!

I am so thankful to God for protecting me this way.

While waiting, the Lord brought a very old song to my heart. The words goes thus:
My eyes have seen
My ears have heard
My mouth should talk about the goodness of God...

My eyes have seen
My ears have heard
My mouth should talk about the goodness of God...

God is good oh o ye, God is good oh o ye.

End of the year 2019 and new year 2020

My family and I always spend the end of the year in a very special way because I take a break from work and the girls are out from school too. Unfortunately, my wife gets very busy at this time of the year. This year, we are not able to travel because of the crisis in Anglophone Cameroon so we can't spend Christmas and New year in the village as has been our custom.
All of us helped my wife to get things made especially in making our own clothes! This was really fun. Then the new year was really good because Marie's mother visited us and we spent the day together. She brought us lots of food stuff from the village.
