Progress

Today I have paid the Architect in Ghana, and the plans can now proceed to planning approval. I don't expect any problem.

We have just under half the finance for the wall. We have a contractor in place.

Now I just have to wait. But the longer I wait, the more women get abused.

Testify

Big article about Ruth House in newspaper which goes to many black churches. BUT - will anybody notice?

Winter

It was a hard winter.
To survive,
I gave up hope.

Now I am frozen.

Can any flowers
ever grow again in me,

or am I forever barren?

Things

New cards are now available about Ruth House.

We are distributing them to any who want them. We are asking people to leave them on coffee tables, and in public places, where permission has been obtained.

Anyone wanting any should contact me jimsmithghana@yahoo.co.uk.

Let's keep this project moving. We now have enough for half the wall cost.
