We visited the Eastern Market on our Saturday in Detroit. This is a massive flower, fruit, and vegetable market, not far from downtown Detroit. There are also art and craft stalls, delicious snacks and coffee vendors, and musicians busking to the crowds. It certainly reminded Candace and I of Cape Town's Waterfront area, with the diversity and multiple cultures on display. And being near the Detroit River, the waterway linking Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie, there were even seagulls circling overhead! :)
Throughout West Africa, Europe, South Africa, the USA, and the South Atlantic Ocean. Our adventure continues as we seek God's will for our life after Mercy Ships.
What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?

He is no fool who gives
what he cannot keep to gain
that which he cannot lose.

We worked with Mercy Vision in South Africa during 2013, and are now settled with our three kiddos in the USA.
