Setting Up in Dakar (by Thom)

A little over a month ago we arrived in our new country - Senegal. After spending the last four years in Mali, Senegal is a bit of a culture shock. Even though we're geographically close (it's only a 2 hour plane flight back to Bamako, Mali!) this place is considerably different. Our lifestyle has changed quite a bit. We're in an apartment now instead of a house and we live in a neighborhood with many other missionaries and Westerners. The focus of our roles in ministry has changed a lot, too. These are just a few of the changes; I hope to expand more about our new lives in this blog over the coming months. Up next I'll be introducing our new teammates here in Dakar, Senegal.
