So, tonight we had our last 'official' team meeting while here in the USA in the form of a Packing Party. At this event, we all brought an extra suitcase and filled it with the supplies, medication, and food that we will be taking. We have over 600 pounds of supplies and medication. In my extra piece of luggage, I have a portable E.K.G. machine. :) Also, our church and other friends have helped us raise over $3000 which is being spent on all that medication and resources for those in El Pino. It is truly amazing.
Getting together tonight was a great opportunity to fellowship with the men and women we will be spending time with over the next week. With less than 48 hours to go, there are many emotions running through each of us...from anxiousness, excitement, to readiness. I'm not sure where I am just yet but I'll be ready for sure by Friday morning. Lastly, we received our t-shirts which are awesome (this picture here is the logo). Till the next time, love and do not fear......
