Continue to Pray

Thank you for your support of Christine and Sol and their children.  It will be dawning morning in Accra, Ghana as most of us head for bed.  Please continue to pray for healing from the trauma they all have experienced and for wisdom and peace as this horrible situation is worked through.

Update Again

Sol and Christine have been released from prison on bail.  Their biological children have also been released.   Their bio children were released to the US Embassy custody, but at least they are together.
