From Rev. Steven and Cynthia Schumacher serving the Lord and His church in Ghana, West Africa
Along with the group from Hope there was a bus from southern Nebraska, some special supporters from Minnesota and others from various
places in Iowa, totally almost 150 people. It was a great day to celebrate
how God is using His people to further His Kingdom around the world

Another highlight was attending the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod's convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and
greeting people all day Monday in the
exhibit area. It was wonderful to see
friends from across the United States
and make new acquaintances. It was a
blessing to represent all the missionaries of Africa on the stage before the
convention gathering. We enjoy being
part of the LC-MS and its Office of International Mission, in spreading the Gospel
of Jesus Christ throughout the world.
During the first week of July we spent
time vacationing with our family in
Northern Michigan. The best part of the
week was spending time with our three
children, their spouses and the five
grandchildren. One day was spent in
the upper peninsula of Michigan and
another on Mackinaw Island. The most
exciting and thrilling activity took place
right outside our door on the Sturgeon
River. From first glance, the river captivated our attention with the thrill of venturing out in kayaks and tubes. Grandchildren Heidi (10), Samantha (7), Harry
(4), and Griffin (2) joined in the fun while
7 month old C.J. stayed shore side and
welcomed everyone back safe and
sound.
How very blessed we are to have a
wonderful family who enjoys spending
time together and celebrating the countless blessings God continues to shower
upon us.
Every now and then we are asked what our children think about our being so
far away in Africa. The fact is we do not get to be them very often but through
emails, phone calls, and Skype we are able to stay in contact and keep up
with each of them. And yes, all of our children and grandchildren are very supportive of our ministry in Ghana remembering us in their prayers as we remember them in ours.
Please know that our prayers are also for each of you as you share and witness your faith in Jesus wherever you may be.
