Bohall Ministry

Throughout the next month or so I will be endeavoring to do something that is quite foreign to us.  In the Spring of 2007, Petra and I were already involved in ministry, working with youth in the local church and teaching English at a nearby seminary. That local church extended an invitation to serve full-time.
