Down the homestretch...

To do List:

Two and a half days until Christmas. Sixteen days until we leave for Tanzania. We have so much to do in the next few days and a TON to do in the next two weeks!

• Finish wrapping Christmas gifts
• Clean-up the house
• Choose wardrobe for trip
• Get hair cut
• Buy vitamins
• Order Malaria prescription
• Finish my nanny job
• Celebrate the new year
• Pack our team bags
• Spend time with the family
• Mail bills and balance checkbook
• Celebrate the coming of the magi
• GET SOME SLEEP!

That should be enough to keep an army busy! We finished our Typhoid pills on Monday with neither of us suffering ill side effects- a major blessing!

Team Scavenger Hunt!

Our team has been collecting supplies for 200 care packages, both individual and family. We had a meeting on Sunday and counted all of the supplies that had been donated to our team. Praise God for all that people gave! We are still short on the following:

• Toothbrushes- need 75-100 more
• Toothpaste- need 100 more (regular or travel size)
• Washcloths- need 150 more (18 for $5 at Walmart!)
• Shampoo- need 100 more (travel size)

We also need supplies for crafts:

• 65 pairs of tube socks (the ones without heels)
• Gospel colored beads (red, black, white, yellow and green)
• glue sticks
• Staplers (5-8)
• Staples

December 30th we will meet to assemble the care packages and decide what final purchases need to be made! Pray that we can make more care packages than we planned! Thank you to all for your support and prayers!

For His Renown,

Jaclyn
