3 DAYS!!


3 Days until departure from our home in Vancouver!   The packing has started for our trip.  We have been blessed by the donations of clothing, shopping bags, and financial support for the work we will be doing in Embulbul.  John and James at Youth Art Project are counting the days for us!  

Clothes for youth and children in Embulbul

Dental supplies, salon goodies for Hannah's Twinkle Beauty, toys, school supplies, 


Chance will be with us in Embulbul for part of our trip and then he will venture to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to attend school at UCBU.  Jonathan and Kate Shaw are en route to Beni and are awaiting his arrival.  Chance will be taking classes (taught in Swahili) on Congolese history and culture as well as course work in communications and media.  What an adventure!  

Allison and I have prepared ourselves for this day but Chance is sure both of us are going to cry when he leaves for Beni via Uganda.  I am not going to cry!!!
