Here we are! All 91 SALT and IVEPers preparing to give a
year of service all over the world
Its hard to believe that I'm already packing my bags again. During my week of training and orientation in Akron, Pennsylvania, I've learned about other cultures, international service and how to live a life that promotes peace. I've been amazed at how quickly a group of strangers from all over the world can become friends and create an international church of believers, however temporary it may be.
I'll be leaving Akron at 8:00 tomorrow morning and won't get to Santa Cruz, Bolivia until 7:00 am. Saturday (don't be fooled, I'm not complaining in the least. The people who are going to some places in Africa while be traveling much, much longer.)
Thank you all for your prayers and support. I couldn't be here without all of you.
Prayer requests:
Safe travel for all of the SALTers and IVEPers
Quick language acquisition
Quick recovery from the inevitable sleep depravation
Peace as I leave everything I know behind
