This is a well-known Ghanian symbol meaning "Except for God" (GYE NYAME) reminding anyone who sees it of God's Sovereignty.
As a dental team we have been reminded of just that: our dependence on God. While jumping into the task of setting up clinic and beginning treatment, we have been reminded daily that without Him, we can do nothing. Without His intervention and if not according to His will, we labor in vain.
And as always; He has been faithful.
He has carried our skeleton team through the process of set up, thanks to the help of extra willing (strong) hands. He has blessed us with managable screening lines twice a week, a flexible dentist (yes that's singular, just one dentist, we 'should' have four) and the energy to accomplish the day's tasks.
I say this all the time but it's true; i love my job and am so blessed to be able to be here and serve these precious people. So I say a simple but heartfelt thank you for your prayers and support, you are a part of making this possible.
