In only 720 hours, we will be boarding a plane headed for Fundong, Cameroon. Here is the latest breaking news:
We have secured tickets at $600 less than our target amount (that's a good thing). However, some members of our team still need a few bucks to make the trip. If you haven't given anything and you were planning on it, now is the time. Email or call any team member, and we'll direct you to who needs help the most.
We are stockpiling resources to bring with us to Cameroon. Pray that God connects us with: 1) Meds. 2) Mosquito nets. 3) AIDS testing kits. I am not exaggerating in any way to say that these resources will literally save the lives of the people who benefit from them. Pray hard people, pray hard.
Also, we are preparing material to give AIDS talks to kids and pastors. AWKWARD! We need some serious wisdom to communicate this in a way that, while very effective, is the least embarrassing for the kids. Just imagine teaching sex ed in 18'th century New England, and you'll have some idea of what we're up against.
Many thanks for all the support!
The Team
P.S. Eric and Philip are doing a benefit concert June 28, 7-9 at New Life at Great Bridge youth house. We are raising money to buy underwear for the kids. Either bring a package of kids underwear, or $5. It's gonna rock!

Dear team,
ReplyDeleteLoads of support from Oklahoma and Texas (i.e. me and Shannon Helster, two of the team members for the most recent May trip). We love the fresh outlook that you guys and gals are gonna give to this wonderful world that is the Harvest Home. Kudos on the Disney World analogy, that pretty much made our week. Please, for the love of Christ, facebook us. Now. Go. We can give you some tips about what to do, bring, eat, not eat, and which child to beat first.
Love in Him who sends,
Justin and Shannon
P.S. Please post bigger pictures of the team, cuz the currently posted ones are smaller than my pinky fingernail and therefore remarkably lame.
Cheers!
