He's a Cameroonian Pastor.
He's our brother. 
A dear brother in the Lord to be precise.
He's a fellow missionary.
Left the pastorate to found a ministry to Muslims shortly before we founded Shiloh.
Been coming to Shiloh for spiritual retreats all down through the years of our existence.
And he blesses the sox off of us every time he comes.
Claims he has learned much from us.
We KNOW we have learned much from him.
Recently shared a proverb from his tribe:
     "If you want to learn many things,
      spend time with little children under six,
      and with old people over sixty."

Wow!  No wonder we love living out here!  These people respect age, revere age, consider people who have lived a long time as ones who have accumulated a lot of wisdom.  Maybe those of you who are approaching retirement age might want to consider joining us.  You too  could enjoy the respect for age that is often lacking in the Land of Plenty. Just a thought.
