Dear Friends,

Three years ago, I returned to Togo for the first time since childhood, and I knew\u2014I had to be part of what Le Pont is doing. When my mom got sick, my dad stepped away from daily operations to care for her, and I stepped in as Executive Director. Now, after her passing, I get to continue in this role, and the best part? Working alongside my dad, whether he\u2019s stateside or in Togo. The team loves that\u00a0Mawumenyo is all in!<\/em><\/div>


This month, Nick and I celebrated 20 years of marriage! He finally got to visit Togo, and the team was\u00a0so<\/em>\u00a0excited to have him. He met with seminary professors to discuss\u00a0Exegeting Orality<\/a>, and we visited two villages that just received Living Water Wells. It\u2019s impossible to describe what it\u2019s like to stand in a place where clean water has just arrived\u2014life-changing<\/strong>\u00a0doesn\u2019t even begin to cover it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

One village, Laouda, especially grabbed our hearts. The pastor and his family had almost nothing. But because of\u00a0your<\/em>\u00a0generosity, he will soon have a motorcycle\u2014something that will completely transform his ministry and the entire village. The church there has 30 new believers, but the village itself, including the chief, is mostly Muslim. And yet, after I shared my story, the chief looked at me and said,\u00a0“Mawumenyo, you are Togolese. You stay! Nick can go back to America.”<\/em>\u00a0He saw firsthand what God is doing, and he was grateful.

Education in these villages is going to be a challenge. The needs are great, but the opportunities are even greater. Please pray with us\u2014for wisdom, for discernment, and for partnerships that truly empower the people of Togo.

I promised I\u2019d come home and tell their stories\u2014because we\u00a0see<\/em>\u00a0them. We\u00a0love<\/em>\u00a0them. And we are so grateful for you\u2014for standing with us, for giving, for believing in this work. Thank you!<\/p>

In His grip of grace,<\/p>
