You may contact the Esala Family in the following ways…

—
E-mail: Write to NSEsala@LBT.org (Feel free to send e-mails to the address. However, due to slow connection speeds, please keep e-mail under 150kb. To write that much text is nearly impossible, so don’t worry about the length of the message. This limit is mainly for sending photos. Please shrink photos to a manageable size or print them and send them snail mail. We love to receive personal messages from you, but please avoid impersonal forwards. Also realize that many times, the phone system that we use does not cooperate, and we are unable to send and receive messages.)

Snail Mail:
-GHANA ADDRESS
NATHAN AND SARAH ESALA
BOX 43
GAMBAGA, NR
GHANA, West Africa

STATESIDE ADDRESS
NATHAN AND SARAH ESALA
333 Blackstone Drive
Centerville, OH 45459

Mail tends take 2-3 weeks to reach our post office. Just send it to our Ghana address. When addressing the envelope it is best to use CAPITAL LETTERS.

Please send packages to the Ghana address. Most likely it will take 4-12 weeks. Items sent in padded envelopes have made it to us in two weeks without any hassle or custom fees to pay. If you have a box you would like to send, it would be helpful to know in advance in case we have a special need you can fill. You will have to fill out a short customs form at the post office. You’ll be asked about the general contents and the estimated value. We’re finding that many things are becoming available in Ghana, but we can’t always find some of the simple things that we’d like to have.

Phone: We have a cell phone that we use in larger towns and cities. Contact us by email to arrange phone communication.

Special Note: With all of these communication options, our access is limited by our location. It’s a 60 minute drive to reach our post office and e-mail set-up. With the road conditions, it’s a long two hour round trip. We try to check e-mail messages weekly, but the connection is not always successful. This means that even though you send a letter or e-mail, we may not receive it for weeks after it arrives. Then it most likely will be a couple more weeks until we can send our response. It’s the feast and famine of our communications. We hope you will be a part of our feast.

Regarding Money: Please send financial support for our ministry or personal gifts to the LBT address in Aurora. If you are contributing to our ministry please, print “ESALA MINISTRY” on the memo line. For personal gifts, print “ESALA PERSONAL” on the memo line. You can also contribute online at LBT’s secure site. LBT informs us of all gifts that we receive.
