I forgot that you mentioned you were going to Africa this summer until I saw your picture and banner on the front page of the UTK website (don't worry, it's a great picture - maybe you've been able to see it lately). It sounds like you're having a wonderful time! Your visit at the church sounded amazing also! And the pictures of the wedding dancers are so beautiful. I'll have to check out the flicker page and some of the other pictures you and Erin have taken too. Just reading this has given me the idea to contact my features editor when school starts month about writing a follow-up story on the trip. I think shedding more light on what you girls are doing and what KJ4J is doing is a perfect way to kick off the new school year. Was the first story any help at all in gaining new participants and volunteers? I was curious. Well, I'll be checking your blog (and Erin's blog too) for more updates! My email address is the same, mgordo10@utk.edu. Good luck and I'll be praying for you all!Melody Gordonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083187314109777743.post-68096399372296954432007-07-24T17:25:00.000-05:002007-07-24T17:25:00.000-05:00Mambo sawa sawa!!<BR/><BR/>Lisa, Erin, Dave, a few other friends, and I sang that song the entire 3.5 mile walk during the Global Night Commute. Holly was probably singing too, but we didn't know her then haha...she DID, however, manage to sneak into a picture of ours! <BR/><BR/>I LOVE YOU and I can't wait to see your dresses!<BR/><BR/>LaurLaurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09880798160488885729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083187314109777743.post-45696740456869084922007-07-24T14:56:00.000-05:002007-07-24T14:56:00.000-05:00Lindsay,<BR/><BR/>It's so awesome to read about your experiences!!

I love your descriptions of the people and places. My heart goes out to the young people and little children. I noticed a box at one of your early stops with "Samaritan's Purse" on it. Our church takes part in that project.
