Hello everyone! Well, this time next week I will be at training camp for Africa! I am totally pumped and cannot wait to start this new adventure in my life. I've bought pretty much all of my supplies (a 2 lb. tent, a sleeping bag the size of a milk jug, lots of peanut butter, batteries..), and am just waiting for Friday to get here. Of course, I'm doing my best to prepare spiritually. I'm currently reading a book about the Holy Spirit while I read the ministries of the apostles in Acts (which is where the Holy Spirit becomes a part of the New Testament story). I'm praying that God will continue to prepare my heart and weed out the weeds of the world that are constantly contaminating it. Please continue to pray for me, my team, and my parents ( :D ) as we plan to go.
As for when we get there, we will be meeting for training in Chattanooga on Friday the 3rd and will train for four days. Then, on the 7th, we will fly into Entebbe, Uganda. We will be there for 55 days, after which we will return to the States for a night of debrief before we go home. We've been told to expect of a lot of prison and hospital ministry and a bunch of playing with street kids. Bring it on :)
If you want to hear what we're doing and how we're doing while we're gone, please visit the team blog at: http://expedition.adventures.org/
Thanks for your support!
Lauren
