Packing Party!

Hey everyone!

Last Monday, our team had the final preparatory meeting and a very successful packing party.  Each team member is allowed one extra bag, which we are filling with supplies for Kids Alive and for our team to use while we're in the DR.  Some things we packed:

Tools
Puppets and puppet stage
Secondhand kids' clothes
Nail polish
Medicines
Sunscreen and bug spray
Lint brushes/mirrors
Nail polish
Gum and candy
Beef jerky
Toothbrushes and toothpaste

We also had our final pre-departure devotions, led by me, and a time of worship--in Spanish!  The team has done a great job learning "Yo Tengo Gozo" (I Have the Joy) and "Abre Mis Ojos" (Open My Eyes) 

Today is a day of packing and last-minute preparations, as we depart for Chicago late tonight!  Please pray for safe travel and a great trip!

In Him,
Paula Humphries
