Lauren's Lighthouse

This morning was my first Sunday here in Ghana and I was so excited to get to worship the LORD in Lauren's Lighthouse Chapel. For theses of you who don't know, Lauren was a dear family friend of mine that past away in 2007 in a car accident. Before she died, she had signed up to go on our youth groups first trip to Ghana. She was never able to make it here in body,  but she is definitely here in spirit. Lauren's family built a church here in Winneba through Maranatha in her honor. It is a beautiful church that is filled with worship for the LORD. It made my heart so happy to see young and old attend church there. We talked about 1 Corinthians 13 this morning and I thought it was so fitting to talk about love on my first Sunday there because Lauren was on my mind and that was what she did. She loved. I am excited to see this church grow and become an even bigger lighthouse for the LORD.
