Banana Islands

Out there in the distance, viewed from the shore of the beach in Brigitte Village, are the Banana Islands. 



They span about five miles, end to end. Two of the Islands -- Dublin and Ricketts -- are inhabited and actually tourist destinations. You can charter a boat from Aberdeen or nearby Kent Beach. There's snorkeling in the area, guest houses and a restaurant. Here's the link: http://www.bananaislandguesthouse-biya.org/ and a map of the area HERE .

The point of including this in the Lifegate blog: the vision for ministry work in Brigitte Village includes a guest house, restaurant, bakery, etc. that could create jobs for members of the church to help sustain the church and Christianity in the area villages. Is it possible? One only needs to cast his vision across the sea for the evidence.

Please pray for this vision for Brigitte Village. Pray that others may see the beauty and invest in this area and its people — both financially and in prayer.
