Time Flies with Preparations!

My goodness! Time flies when there are a lot of important things to do as you can see by the tardiness of this week’s blog. Today, we decided to do a quick information blog about what has been happening on the back end here at Sister Missions!

Lesson plans are coming along nicely for the whole team. Materials have all been purchased and I think we are ready to pack! (Packing day is July 29th!) We have 6 computers to take over and have our computer orientation lessons and word lessons done. Only a few other program lessons to go! Yeah! Other team member lessons include how to build a bamboo and resin bike, trailer wagon for the bike, ceramic stove, and possibly even a water filter. The self-efficacy and strategy resources have arrived and the medical supplies are ready to pack.

We are still in need of more donations.
Please help!


As many of you know, Andrea was away all week as a leader for the PLCC Youth mission to the Wapato Indian reservation in Eastern Washington (near Yakima). She will report back on her adventures as soon as she returns and takes a breath! Jeanna will post the link to the information here, on Sister Missions and send out an email.

Jeanna has been busy getting things in order in Detroit so she can fly back to Seattle to finish preparations! Lots of traveling! She has been searching for information and writing the daily blog entries that will be posting throughout our time away (so please read them!) as well as refining the mailing list properties so a newsletter can be sent out without sharing everyone’s email with everyone else! (So please sign up for the mailing list at: http://sistersforkodera2008.blogspot.com/2008/05/join-our-kodera-mailing-list.html).


A small note on the mailing list signup: We do not want our emails to be considered spam. So we have a double opt in process. After you submit your name and address, you will receive an email welcoming you and asking for you to confirm your subscription by clicking on the link. You have 6 days before your subscription expires and you are erased from the list – so click ASAP! AFTER you confirm, you will hopefully be redirected to our blog main page…although I have been working on this code and am not sure I got it right yet… in the past it has been going elsewhere. That is it! We will send a few updates (no loading up your inbox…).

Please be looking out for a couple emails from Sister Missions! We will be sending one to let you know about this blog in an HTML format and one inviting you to join our mailing list. Let me know if you did not receive them by emailing SisterMissions@gmail.com!

I think that is it for now! Must get back to work!
