Accra, Ghana, West Africa From July 2011

Such a wealth of diversity in the courses I'm taking here in Accra. Taking the last four courses of Azusa Pacific University's Operation Impact program that offers a Global Organizational Leadership masters program, getting to know the students from many different cultures is at least half of the education being offered. This is our second course class that finished up today and we start in on two new classes on Monday. They provide us with outings on the weekends and we are taking off in the morning to visit what once was a slave castle. Tonight we were treated to an authentic Chinese restaurant and I ordered in Chinese so it's true, you can go anywhere in the world and eat Chinese. And did I mention there is no McDonalds here at all in the whole country? Yes, for me that designates it to be a third world country. However, the people are great, so friendly and so polite. Their views challenge us to think about our Christianity from a different lens
