13 Days Left!: Everytime you eat, pray for the health and safety of our team.

Giraffes should come in plaid!

 Last night the students made a two week countdown chain.  Everyday they wrote a prayer and a random (hence the title of this post).  I'll try to keep up with their chain on here.

Someone commented to me last night that they were so glad I'm going on this trip.  I am too.  I really am.  I think it's going to be quite an experience for everyone, and I'm so glad to be a part of it.
