Auntie Martha

You have to know Auntie Martha.  This sweet older sister in the Tarkwa congregation has lived here for 30 years or so.  Auntie Martha ran a maternity center and helped deliver most of the residents, their children and grandchildren.  But her "memory is not so good", as she puts it.  So she hired a couple of women and turned the center into a daycare.  While preaching yesterday, we had a chance to stop by and  visit her and all the children.  Here is our sister and hostess to Ghana, Annette playing patty cake with some of the children...


Auntie Martha is a fine witness to Jehovah throughout the whole village of Tarkwa.  On a side note, we went preaching in Bogoso and Odumasi today, two villages with 4 deaf bible students.  An hour and a half trotro ride from Tarkwa.
