A little time table adjustment

Due to changes in flights we are now leaving Minneapolis on Thursday  11/3 and returning on Wednesday 11/16. But guess what! We are stopping in Rome! So we will be in Rome for 1 hour at 2:30 am :-) !I I've always wanted to go to Rome.

We are starting to get some vitamin donations and soccer balls. Thank you for your donation. You will make a difference to a child who has so little!

Flintstones and Football


As the time for departure draws near, we have started collecting children's vitamins and soccer balls to take in our empty suitcases. We had a great response from church members, friends and family. I hope we have enough to fill all three suitcases so little ones, like this little boy I photographed in Monkey Bay last trip, don't have to play with homemade balls.

The final count down begins



Last night we had our final team meeting before we leave for Malawi. We decided to bring children's vitamins along in our extra suitcases as we hear that even with the feeding stations, there is still a need to improve the nutritional value of that food. Two weeks from today we begin our journey to visit our friends in Chamasowa. Susan, Paul and I are very excited and grateful for this opportunity!
