Coming Home to Yekepa

(Paul) Tonight Dr and Mrs Miamen (the President of our ABC University in Liberia)  hosted a beautiful dinner for us at their home with all the staff. At least 50 people in their front yard. Wonderful Liberian food. Before dinner Dr Miamen came over to our home and presented us with beautiful African outfits - actually two outfits each! We have genuinely been warmly received and welcomed. He called it our Homecoming. Yes, the kids having been hearing it from me my whole life - Liberia was a very special place to grow up - it really does feel like I'm back at home.
