THINGS WE STILL NEED FOR SWAZI TRIP

Some folks have asked what we still need for the Swaziland trip. It looks like these are the main things we are still needing:

****40 backpacks (the kind kids carry school supplies and books in)---BIG priority!

*56 pairs of children scissors

*LOTS of fabric markers

*glue sticks

*boys shorts in various sizes (brand new or like new)

*skirts in various sizes from toddler up to teenager/ (brand new or like new)

*boys AND girls underwear, all sizes from preschooler up to teenager---50 pairs

*about 10 or 20 more solid color t-shirts (not white) in medium, L, and XL sizes---youth & adult (many of our carepoint kids are teenagers)

*head scarves for the carepoint women who cook and teach the children (not bandana sized but big enough to wrap around their heads and knot...the size that we wear in the states that are about the size of shawls)

AND THANKS TO ALL OF THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY GIVEN SO GENEROUSLY!!!!!!!


By the way, while I have your attention, will you please pray for us? Pray for us as we all handle the thousand and one last minute details. And pray for me as pre-trip jitters have officially set in. I know...sounds crazy since I used to live there and I was just there two weeks ago, but they have.

And again, THANKS!
