Not again..

I think trouble is following me, or I'm the cause of it. Anyways, something is going on here in Cameroon. Nothing here in Ngaoundere though. A translation of what we're supposed to say if someone asks follows:

Pray for Cameroon

During the last days there has been disturbances in Cameroons biggest city Douala, and the capital Yaounde. There has been political demonstrations, and some places the demonstrations have come out of control.

We who are missionaries here in the northern part of Cameroon don't notice any of the disturbances. It's almost a little strange that there's unrest in the capital while it's so quiet around us.

We're prepared that the phone-connection and Internet might get cut off in the entire country, which is quite common here during times of trouble. Since the news of the unrest probably will reach Norway it's important to say that we're feeling safe and we don't notice any of the disturbances.

If it should, which we do not expect it will, spread, we have a good deal with french authorities concerning protection and in worst case, evacuation.

We want to encourage you to pray for Cameroon. The minister of tourism who were at the opening of the church on Sunday said that "In Cameroon there lives 250 tribes in peace". Pray for it to stay that way.
