Working for the weekend

The only thing we took time off from this weekend was the internet cafe! Saturday morning started with Board meeting...and Saturday evening ended with it! It was so great to have a face-to-face meeting with our whole team! We discussed the exciting upcoming opportunities for this organization...Molly often says that she started this project simply because it had to be started and we are so grateful for the support and passion for our cause!

On Sunday, we went to church with Auntie Serwah. Somehow, they convinced Ann to sing! Auntie Serwah was very pleased and Ann and Molly enjoyed the opportunity to meet everyone. The rest of the day was spent in meetings (no day of rest for us!). It was really affirming to hear from others doing similar work to build local capacity in human service work. We feel strongly that building local capacity is the key to the long term success of autism treatment, and we felt we were in good company with some of the wonderful work going on in Ghana. Their support of our work really made us feel that we're on the right track.
