How Beautiful are the Feet of Those That Bring...

We've got 17 days left until we leave for Gabon. Lately we've been in close contact with the folks we'll be working with in there. They've all chosen to follow God's call on their lives and serve Him in a place where they can't always easily get things that we take for granted living in the states. So, we'll have the honor of acting as couriers for some of these diversely important items.
Among the things they've asked us to bring over are:
-a CD4 Counter, which is a lab device to determine how severely HIV/AIDS patients are being affected by the disease
-replacement blades for a dermatome, a device for making skin grafts
-a new ultrasound probe
-some asthma medications
-a care package from parents and grandparents including Velveeta and other goodies
-pedometers
-replacement clothes dryer belts
-batteries
-a "Flat Stanley," which is a small paper figure for one of the missionaries to take pictures of in diverse locations for her great nephew's class project

Please continue to pray for God to be preparing us spiritually, mentally, and physically.
