Church of Christ Assasetre

The main reason why James was going back to Assasetre was to see the completed roof on the church there. Two years ago, on his first visit to the area, he was saddened to see the beginning of a church structure that the people could not afford to complete. He returned to the states with a burden to raise the money to finish it. The people of his church in Ohio and the one he grew up in in Kentucky rose to the challenge and gave enough money to roof not only this church but the one of John's in Half Assina. Pretty amazing. last yerhe went back to Ghana and brought them the money. And now here it was another year later and the dedication service was going to happen. You will see that the church is still not what we would call complete. The floor is still just dirt and the walls have no plaster but now people can worship there out of the glaring African sun or heavy rains. I hope to go back one day and see it all the waythey envision it but I know that it is not really the building that is important but the message they share there.
