MN Principal bans Bible, suggests book about witches !

This story and court case is from my hometown!  I've been in this elementary school building many a time!  I was quite shocked to know that this such challenges to God's Word happens in my alma mater Marple-Newtown.  May God return America to its Judeo-christian heritage.

Another working visit

The Kayes bridge is open again, so at first opportunity I drove across and out to the Fulani village of Duduya again to see progress on the well.  I’m pleased to say they’ve deepened it by over 7 meters since restarting in late July, and, even better, there is ankle deep water each morning  :-)  The main diggers, Nyama Djonson and his apprentice, were deep down in the hole when I arrived around 11 am, and didn’t come up until about 1 pm, then went down again for an hour or so to set the charges, and we got to watch the explosion around 3pm.  We visited around homes while waiting for work progress.  Being the middle of the day most men were out in fields or out with their cattle, so we greeted mostly the women and I played with the kids.

I had brought out the local Malinké pastor, Marka Fofana, as he’s expressed interest in working among the Fulani and also seeing the village for some time.  I had Madu Aan, a local Fulani teacher, come along, too, to have more time with him and understand his growing faith.  We played a couple Way of Righteousness tapes while there to village friends.  I want him to learn a way of witness that comes naturally from the Bible using the stories in the Bible order.  Two other men were along, long time friends who have not yet heard the gospel in their hearts, Baba Dramera and Vieux Diarra.  Please pray for each one mentioned.  On the way out I picked one bad section of muddy road where trucks had made deep tracks, and got stuck, but having four men along to push backwards while I put it in low four-wheel drive, we were soon moving again.  There was deep water in two other places, but that’s not a problem for the Isuzu!

The chief, Hamet Diallo, was pleased to see us, but since this was in the midst of the daily fast during this month of Islam Ramadan, nothing was cooking.  They gave some of us milk to drink, and later some rice and peanut sauce came along anyway.  I had to hold up my hands and hold my nose; oh those peanuts they love to try to make me eat!  Some more sour milk came to stir into the rice, so I had a snack anyway.   Rain threatening, we headed back to Kayes by 4 pm.  Oh, it is so nice to just go and come back in one day now!
