Only 10 more sleeps!

On Saturday I received an email from Rwanda telling me "we count the days and there is still 17 days until you arrive in Rwanda". If they are excited, imagine that I am even more so!

Sue and I hit the front page of the local Heathcote newspaper last week and there has been quite a bit of interest in our little town including generous gifts to take with us. 'Fashion on High' donated lots of new clothing for us to take to bless some people in Rwanda.  We had fun with Carol and Skye packing it into a large overnight bag.

Another exciting addition to our trip is a family from central Victoria that is going to help build a house for the family of one of the teachers at the Youth for Christ school.  God has made some wonderful connections for us to help get this building project going. A few weeks ago we met with Elliot and Sarah from YGAP and David from sanejo.org

And the family leaves on Wednesday on their big adventure. I hope to update you with photos  when Sue and I visit them in the village.
