I have never made a blog before, so we'll see how this goes!
Dee and I have our 4 bags packed with the allowed 50 lbs. each. I have about 15 lbs. to still get in and still end up with 4 bags weighing 50 lbs. each! Its a challenge, but it will happen!
We are leaving Feb. 23rd for Nigeria. I will just summarize our plans, you may already know what they are. In Nigeria we are working with a group affiliated with Steve Saint, training 16 people to do fillings and extractions in 6 days. Start to finish! Dee and I cannot wait to see this happen. We will leave Nigeria March 2nd and go to Ehiopia. There we will work with Samaritans Purse training one of their workers. Then go on a two week medical/dental mission with Jewish Voice. We are praying Dee can get a license to practice dentistry in Ethiopia, that will open a lot of doors for us. April 7th we will leave for Nepal. We will be doing more training while there. We will be staying with Yam Devi, who we trained last year. She will be in charge of where we go and what we do. At this point, we have no idea what that might be.
Please keep us in your prayers for safety and health. Now that I know about the bugs in the rice maybe I will come home skinny!!
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. We'll see what I am able to do with it! I don't know how often I will be able to get to a computer.
