We Made It!


34 hours after leaving home we are in Lusaka, Zambia and checked in to our hotel, so far we feel extremely welcome, the people have been nothing but gracious. Thank you so much for your prayers and support, other than one missing suitcase, our travels were safe and uneventful. Now that we have had a good night’s sleep and a well needed hot shower and are almost ready to start our Sunday.

Our day will start with a team breakfast and then off to Miracle Life Church for service. After church we will be visiting Chikumbuso at Ng’oma which is a co-operative of HIV / AIDS widows who work and live together to support themselves, they make beautiful handcrafted bags and jewelry, those of you that made the Zambia Up Close and Personal event will remember the beautiful bracelets that were sale from these women at the event. These women are so talented and I cannot wait to meet them and get to hear a little bit of their story.

The rest of the day will be full of preparing for the next week, fellowship and meeting with the World Vision Zambia Southern area team that work with and interact with our 2 ADP’s. It is going to be a wonderful start to our trip and we are excited to see what God has in store for us!

Praise God for all of his blessings, safety and security so far!
