We were taught well by our Pastor to be submissive to the will of God. As the Lord continued to speak through him, missionary teams from our church organized and traveled to various parts of the world, spreading the word of God. It was easy to say yes to the Lord when Pastor spoke to us about missions. He directed the congregation to “Get your passport ready.”

Our missionary travels eventually took me to the African country of Ghana. Visiting this beautiful country of diverse people and cultures was the inspiration for writing this book. As I learned more and more about its people and cultures, I developed a desire to share my knowledge and help others to better understand and appreciate the people and cultures of this country. I pray that sharing my knowledge will help remove some of the past and present misconceptions of Ghana and its people.
