New Website!!
You notice that this blog is called "Toward Togo"; well, we arrive in Togo April 25th, so we will no longer be headed toward Togo! In order to keep you informed, we have created a new website which also has a blog. Check it out www.gerhart.abwe.org as a result of this, we will no longer be updating this blog, but again, you can follow us at the new website! May God bless you, and thank you for praying for us!

A time for good-byes
Well, we just finished another trimester of school and are definitely seeing progress-- thanks so much for praying for us, there is still much to learn so please keep praying. The kids also have finished school for the year and they all did really well in spite of the great challenges they faced-- with God's help they overcame and excelled-- once again thank you for praying. This was the year James finished elementary school-- next year he moves to a different school a couple of blocks away for collège (really middle school). It's hard to believe; he's growing up so fast.

Birthday Party
This past weekend was the celebration of the grand event of Boaz turning 5!! He got to be the first one to get a party in France, and it was a great time as all the kids were pirates. They followed a map to a treasure and had a blast.
As far as the rest of us, we are pressing on in our language ability. Some days we are greatly encouraged by our progress and some days not so much but such is the process. It was nice to have Jim's parents visit for a week. You can see by the pictures we visited a couple of new places.
Thank you for your prayers!! Please continue to pray for us-- the time is flying by and the language learning doesn't always go as fast as we would like, but the Lord is teaching us many things as we experience the struggles and realize in so many ways our total dependency on Him!
