what is it now?  two weeks until we leave for nicaragua?  plenty of time yet still plenty to do. 

there’s alot that goes on before we can actually leave on a mission trip and much of that preparatory work is done by carla aday and stephanie becker. (check it out…first time she goes on a mission trip with the name becker!)

just this weekend alone, plastic bags will be labeled so that they can be filled with vitamins and other pillish things.  suitcases will be packed with several hundred pounds of tablets.  stephanie will go over lists, check them twice (no presents will come out of this i assure you) and more paperwork will be prepared for our hosts and the government in nicaragua (they REALLY like paperwork, especially once you have it done and ready to go, they like you to expound upon the information.  and they’re really big on tweaking).

you may not find a ton of info here before we leave, but once we’re on the ground in nicaragua check back regularly.  if we have an internet connection there’s a good chance we could post updates almost daily. 

until then, god bless.
