Housing

So we got some good news this week. Bunny Wolfe has been helping us with a lot of the logistics and planning on this trip and she let us know that she has settled our housing situation while we are in Liberia.

We will be staying with a missionary couple from Burundi on the United Methodist Mission compound. There names are Joel and Anne-Marie and it sounds like they will be happy to host us while we are there. Anne-Marie is a teacher Joel is a financial manager.

It is nice to have some of these details coming into place, and I may have found a placement for me in the reconciliation movement. I'll post more details when I get them.

Until next time...

This is just the first post to say hello. We will be posting more later on. We plan to update pretty regularly with some fundraising dates, details on our trip, and news from Liberia. Hopefully we will be able to update from Liberia as well. Thanks for being involved and check back often.
