One Last Guyana Meeting!!

Last night, the 2012 Guyana team had their final meeting. We met at Pine Valley UMC and began packing. Three hours later, all of the lovely donations from so many people made their way into foot lockers that we will be delivering to various orphanages. We received all kinds of children's clothes and shoes as well as adult-sized flip flops that we will give to the homeless during our street feeding program. We will also be bringing various kinds of children's medicine and toys!

 Below are a few pictures from last night's packing meeting:

Thanks to Hayes Twisdale from NCSU for our T-shirt design this year!

We were commissioned this morning at PVUMC's Bridge service and are anxiously awaiting what God has in store for each of us as we go to serve Him and His people of Guyana. Please continue to pray that we will have safe travels and a smooth trip through customs once in Guyana. We will be leaving Wilmington around 7 on Tuesday morning and should be in Guyana by 11:30 on Tuesday night. 

Thanks so much for your continued prayers and support!!

One last thing: If you would like to leave comments for our team while we are gone, you can do so below (click where it lists the number of comments). We will be able to get them while in Guyana!!
