Catholic Mission of Sainte Esprit - 1897

We had to renew my Gabon visa in the  coastal village of Myumba.  God was so organised as we had met a couple a few weeks ago, who actually lived  and worked from there!  They live in a very old mission station called the Mission of Sainte Esprit which was built in 1897.  It is perched on  a hill with a spectacular view of the interior side of the Banio Lagoon and the sea in the distance. It remains the best preserved mission of its kind in Gabon. Here are a few pics....
