Preparing for 2010 Visit to Hope Africa University

On December 31, we travel once again to Hope Africa University (HAU). We have nearly completed our packing. Our luggage outbound consists mostly of instructional materials for the courses we will be teaching: Darlene--Physical Assessment and Diagnosis; Wayne--NT Theology, and Wesleyan Theology. We are also carrying a 20# 220-110 volt electrical converter for the Medical Skills lab at HAU.

We request your prayers for safe travel. Thursday afternoon, we fly from Rochester to Washington D.C. where we will meet up with Barbara Rose. From D.C. we fly overnight to London, spend New Year's Day there (in the Heathrow airport), and fly overnight again to Nairobi, Kenya. Arriving early morning January 2, we spend the morning there (in the airport) and at noon fly on to our final destination: Bujumbura, Burundi.

Blessings on you and yours in the New Year.
