Another whirlwind

8 days ago I decided that I would go with the next team to Liberia.

4 days ago I got my tickets. And my shots. And my visa.

10 days from now I'll be on the plane.

17 days later I'll return.

The River of Grace has been working with an orphanage in Liberia for almost 4 years now. In that time, we've shipped containers with donations, sent teams and individuals (including Liberian ROG members), arranged for local agricultural experts to help start a large garden and teach the orphanage staff how to maintain it... and so much more.

During this trip, we'll be working on finishing the building of a school and church on the orphanage grounds. We also hope to build a chicken farm so that the children can have another food source. I'll be working with a Liberian ROG sister to help the orphanage leaders define policies and expectations for the orphanage, school, caretakers, and teachers. And, of course, we'll be loving on the kids as much as possible.
