Coming Down the Final Stretch






Above are some pictures from last night's crazy meeting. The meeting ran a little long once we got all of the visa stuff figured out but such is how it goes right before departure. After a call for assistance from our friend Sally in New Mexico, we got everything sorted out. All of that is off to the Nigerian embassy at the end of this week for processing. We also had great guest appearances from Dan Florea, who we affectionately call our "well guy," and Lucas Busko, resident video genius. Dan has helped us wrap our hands around a possible water and well project for this Christmas. We also have a cookout coming up which should be a great way to relax as a team and decompress a little bit before everyone departs (pictures included of course). Apparently Sarah makes some bangin lemon squares which I'm personally pumped about. The teams really seem to be coming together in an awesome way (three teams are joining into one great one). Also, we are making an effort as a team to post some more things about what everyone has been doing this summer and how they are feeling heading into this overseas ministry experience. One of those, by a leader, Ed King, will be posted this afternoon and we ask you to stay tuned for more. Also, we will be continuing the vitamin drive again this weekend after all Masses and are looking for another great turnout. See you all soon!
