We are preparing to travel back to Senegal in March to visit our friends and work to improve health and living conditions. The date of the trip was selected to allow youth from our church to travel with us over spring break, and two are doing so! We are also accompanied by first-time travelers from our church and new friends from other congregations. There will be 13 of us in all.
There will be two waves of people traveling. Carol and four others (Team A) will leave first and be in Senegal seven days before the second group arrives (Team B - which I will be shepherding). Team A will be working most directly with the Community Health Workers their first week. Team B will be involved with the local churches, the Senegal mission's programs, and the microcredit programs. Two of the Team A will be returning after eight days and everyone else will be returning a week after Team B arrives.
We are all looking forward to escaping from the Chicago winter - which has been one of the coldest and snowiest on record. We expect temperatures in the 80's during our stay.
