Two days left... are you ready?

Well, we're finally down to the wire. We leave for Nicaragua in TWO DAYS! The general consensus of the group last night was that now our trip is a reality! We have been talking about it all year, and now it's not two months away! It has seemed to hit some people last night: "Oh man, I'm really going!"

Last night we had some folks come down from Pisgah Program Challenge Course located at Geneva College. We met the people in our family groups and did some really awesome (and crazy!) team building activities. We were asked how we could use the lessons we learned last night in Nicaragua. Everyone seems so focused and willing to participate and listen to others! It's going to be a great trip.

We also packed suitcases of donations last night. I think the number of suitcases we will be taking down to Project Chacocente is around 18-20! Thanks to all who have donated supplies! The project will be so happy to have these things! Also, thanks to all the parents who helped pack the suitcases and made sure they weighed the 50 pound limit!

Thanks to EVERYONE for the wonderful support you have shown us this past year! We are so grateful to have wonderful families, church families, communities, and friends who want to help the people in Nicaragua and support our trip!
