On my way...


Hello everyone,

I'm getting ready to head back to Ndola, Zambia for the third time. It's so crazy!!! I leave on February 10th and will be there for around 6 months. Please check my blog for updates on what's happening!

What will I be doing???? Well, I will be helping with the new OVC (orphan and vulnerable children) centre. We will be setting up the resource centre and library and I will be working with the team to develop new programs for the kids. Our hope is that we can supplement their education and offer a variety of activities for them to participate in. I'm very excited to return and work with the amazing team at Isubilo and see all my kids again!

It is so amazing to get messages from home so I hope that all of you will keep in touch!!!

Thanks for all your support. For more information on Isubilo go to www.isubilo.org.

Hey Kristin good job abd we will be praying for you. I know you have not met me but you have heard alot about me from Sophia about the Kenyan Project and am glad you are in the team.
Its so rewarding to sacrifice you self and time to serve others instead of developing yourself. Keep the good spirit and for sure your labour for the orphans in Zambia is not invain. I will keep an eye on the blog for updates.

Hello Kristi, I've been thinking of you and Jessica and Liam all day as you fly many long hours. Looking forward to your first post from Africa letting us know that all is well and you're enjoying the heat as we freeze back at home!
