After the many facial surgeries that are perfomed the patients can start to look alike, with the large white banadages around their heads. Despite this fact their personalities come shining forth. Jeremiah in this picture put all these stickers on his own face!

The wonderful work on the Ward continues. Hettie playing with babies and lots of cleft lip and palate repairs.

In other ways war torn Liberia is so much different than Ghana or Senegal. From the signs, to the ever present UN and the barb wire every where. Each person here seems to have a story to tell and thankful for a listening ear to tell it to.

Carrying things on their heads and babies on their backs!

In so many ways Liberia is similar to Ghana and Senegal, the other two African countries I have experienced. One similarity being how they use their heads as their third hand. It really is amazing what they can carry.

Liberia is a country recovering from 13 years of civil war. The recovery process is truely in place. Join with me in prayer for this nation. "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ ! In His great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade -kept in heaven for you, " 1 Peter 1 : 1-3
