The team leaves this evening, please pray for safe travels, health, and for the two camps and their time in Sweet Home to be a blessing to those people they will be helping transform their own community. The community development we do in Sweet Home is all lead by locals and we only work on what they asks us for help with. It has been an amazing learning experience to understand the difference between relief (short term) and development (long term) and to be focused only on the long term needs for so many years. We are seeing sustainable change. The locals in their community understand their needs so much better than we do and through CHE (Community Health Evangelism) we can see progress in distinct ways we never saw in other ministries.
It is a very long flight and we will post an update when they arrive. After that it is usually a day and a half wait for their first post since they have to get settled and get through a whole day before their first post.
You can track the first flight here.
And the second flight here.

Praying for safe travels for your team. I'm sure everyone on the team has things going on here at home that could creep in and distract you from focusing on your mission, but try to keep your focus on God and what he has for each of you as you serve him for the next 16 days. It's going to be an amazing and growing experience for each of you. Looking forward to updates! :)
