"How did the work in Ghana Africa begin?" is a question we often get asked. This is the short version of how that happened!
A magazine from the USA somehow made its way to Ghana West Africa that had an offer for free Smokey The Bear stickers in it. Some school students got this magazine and started to write and ask for numerous things among which were approximately 30 some requests for bibles.
These letters ended up at the Bureau of Land Management office in Farmington NM USA where Bro David Wassan worked. A lady on the way to trash the letters passed by Bro David's desk and knowing he was a Christian said, "You may be interested in these" and handed him the letters.
Bro David started corresponding to those who requested bibles and out of that made contact with Bro Anthony Hamadzi who he discipled in Christ through the mail. Bro Anthony later started and pastored the church in Sogakope until his death in 2004.

This is the only photo of Bro David that I could find. I apologize Bro David, I will do my best to get a better photo! (He usually has a big smile on his face but he was getting ready to jokingly chide the person who surprised him with this photo shoot!)
Bro Anthony Hamadzi
Bro Anthony was very sick in this photo and passed away about a month after this phot was taken in 2004 .
