Why, and What we have accomplished so far

I will try to make this short but sweet and to the point. With a lot of praying and pondering, we have decided to take a trip to Africa in February 2009. We are going on our first missions trip to Kigoma, Tanzania. We made this decision back in April if not before. I was trying to read my journal for the exact date we decided but couldn't find it. It was a tough decision for me to make. Kevin and I have been trying for a baby but nothing has happened. We did a lot of praying as I have mentioned and God has told us this is what we are to do. So we are doing it. We are very excited. We have mailed out our information to get our passports, I have taken my hepatitis A&B shots; also tetanus, and yellow fever. On the 28th of July I will take my second series of Hepatitis A&B, then whatever else needs to be done. Kevin has had most of the shots required as he has been to Africa before. He went in January of 2007 with his Dad. On Tuesday the 15th we went to Rochester, Indiana and had dinner with some of the people we will be staying with. We met Terry and Ruth Ann, Claudia and Lowell, also Mwenge. We even met Terry and Ruth Ann's neighbors and at this time I can't remember their names. They are wonderful people and it was a pleasure to meet them all. You can learn more of what we are going to do by going to www.joyintheharvest.com. You will learn so much about this missionary and what goes on. We are very excited about going on this trip and most of all what we will be doing for all of them and for God. How could you not get excited about doing something for God? You would have to be crazy. :) I will do my best at keeping you up to date with our journey to Africa. After all we want you to join our experience as well. You are a part of this as much as we are. I hope you will join us.
