This is just a mini-blog to let you know that we have made it to France and in another day we will be heading back to the States. We will soon fill you in on the entirety of our trip to Chad, but for now we thought we'd just share some quotes from our friends and neighbors (in translation) to give you a taste of our trip. Thanks for praying!
"Hello! Hello! You've come back! You've brought the baby!"
"She is our baby! A baby of our town."
"She is happy. She likes the black people."
"What? You are going to be leaving so soon. Why don't you stay awhile?"
"When will you come back?"
"I don't want you to go."
"Your leaving is not sweet. It is difficult."
"Are you taking that mat with you? Can I take it? What about that..."
"Go well."

Tom and Megan and their two children all live on an island off the coast of Africa. Tom and Megan are teachers who strive to bring joy to the island people through their volunteer work. They have lived on the island since Feb 2009.
They are back in the US from Aug-Dec 2011 and will then go to France (to study French) for most of 2012. In 2013 they will return to the islands.
