Okay, so not so good at daily entries... yet! =)
Laundry is done. Tickets for flights are reserved. Still some funding is needed, but generous donations have poured in! Needing about $2400. Packing needs to happen. Sleeping well next week needs to happen, too. Prayer meeting is tonight!
Praise reports: generous check came in today that covers all that was left for the South Africa portion of my trip! Pharmacy license renewal came in the mail today!
I will update tomorrow again because I will get reports from the rest of the India team tonight. As for me, all is set except deciding exactly what things to bring and making sure they fit in the selected bags I am bringing!
So.. close.. `o`

T minus 10 Days
Our flights to India begin in 10 days! We are all getting totally excited. There is quite a lot left to do in preparation, but everything seems to be coming together nicely. We learned our parts for a little play we plan to do at a school in Bangalore. It looks like it will be fun! We may be working with Home for Hope while we're there as well.
I thought I would attempt to get in the habit of updating daily until we leave so that it would be easier to update while on travel. Also, I have a Twitter account now (@kiki_anna). I've never done Twitter, not sure how it'll go, but there it is. In India, we will be staying in an efficiency-type apartment (at least, that's the plan ;)), and it is said to have wi-fi, which is exciting!
Personally, I have laundry to do and lists to make, in order to ensure I'm not leaving anything behind! Everything for South Africa is good to go. ...I'm pretty sure, anyway. ..Hence, the need for the list.
Prayers are welcomed & appreciated. The India team is fasting (to some degree) over the course of this week as we pray for the trip & the people we will encounter while there. Feel free to join us! We will be breaking our fast this Friday evening (July 19) before our final official prayer meeting before the trip.
Some specific things for which to pray:
Rest/sleep - many of the India team (including myself) have not been sleeping well. I'm sure I don't need to tell you how that can effect a person. Pray for supernatural rest, and fruits of the spirit despite the lack of rest some of us have been getting.
Health & Safety - so, this doesn't really need an explanation. ;)
Africa leader's health - The lead Doctor for South Africa has recently (a few months back now) had back surgery. Please be praying for her continued recovery, and no complications while out of country.
Finances- The India team hasn't collected all the donations necessary for our trip.
Unity - within the team(s) and with those with whom we'll be working
I'm sure I'll think of other things later!
Thank you for all your support. God continues to do great things!
Praise Jesus!!
