A Chance to Give Something Unforgettable......

Each year, we have the incredible opportunity to give out 1000's of gifts to underprivileged kids across Burkina Faso, West Africa. This short 5 minute video will give you a quick look at what last year involved and the upcoming opportunities this year. If this video grabs your heart or even if you would just like to find out more information about these outreaches, please leave a comment so that I can get in touch with you.

A Short Trip up to Dori.....

So what's downtown where you live?

About twice a month, I venture into downtown Ouagadougou to take care of everything from grocery shopping to simply running errands. It's often times the most obvious things that we often see just don't catch our eyes. That said, I was downtown with some people that were in country for just a few weeks and their fascination with this Mosque allowed me to see things in a new light. What you're looking at is one of the largest Mosques here in the capital city of Burkina Faso.
(oh, and one little detail, I do realize my mouth is wide open in this pic - so allow me to explain the context. It's an unspoken rule here that you just aren't supposed to take pictures downtown without all the proper "paper work." Now - whether that means bribing the right person or just having good friends in government, military, and/or police - well, your guess is as good as mine. That said - I'm talking with someone who is (and was) taking a picture of me..... )

Downtown here in Ouaga.
