Friday evening update

On Thursday, the team wrapped up another successful trip in terms of their mission and volunteer work and were headed to the Lake area for a couple of days to unwind, reflect on what they experienced and debrief amongst themselves before beginning their long journey home.

Lisa said that all in all, even with the nervousness about the unavailability of gasoline for their van, they managed to accomplish what they wanted to, including home visits, work on the irrigation system began last year, home repairs, bringing the first ever electricity to a specific feeding center, and more.

The team's spirits remained high throughout the almost two weeks of hard work and they were looking forward to 2 days of downtime at the lake.

They said that they'd likely not have a means of communication with us back home until heading back into the city just before packing and heading out to the airport this weekend, so we wouldn't hear much until at least Saturday.

It seems they're all very energized from what they've been through and most are already coming up with ideas for next time!

We should have information about JFK arrivals for Monday morning later this weekend and I'll use this blog site to hopefully keep all up to date on when the team should arrive back at LCPC as well.

More soon.....
Marc
