Our Stuff is Packed and We're on Our Way Home...

This was the scene on Friday as some of our goods friends here came out to help us load the container. Since we had a somewhat multicultural team here, we decided to assign them roles that would go along with their geo-stereotypes and it worked to perfection.

We had Frank the German in the truck making sure everything was organised so that it would fit perfectly and it did. Amazing job by Frank as I'm still sitting here in utter amazement that all of our stuff fit in there. Then we had a few Americans telling everybody what to do and a Scot and Pa Dutch team letting us know how we could do this much cheaper. Oh and Pastor David who kept us all in prayer and no one was hurt and we filled the truck with 15 mins. to spare.

Thanks again to: Frank and Becky (Becky is an admin. master who typed out our whole inventory in a few mins. which would taken me a whole day), Gary who kept us laughing and thinking with his great sense of humor and keen insights, Pastor David who kept encouraging, praying and working hard (reminded me of Nehemiah rebuilding the wall), Dave for his never ending enthusiasm, energy and creativity and great sense of humor, Louise for looking after the kids while all this was going on. You all are amazing and we will always remember you and miss you greatly.
