Welcome

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to post a note and welcome you to our blog. We are going to try and keep everyone up to date with what we are doing.

We just finished picking the dates for our trip, it looks like we be leaving around April 29th or 30th and returning on the 22nd of May. We are very excited for this trip and really are looking forward to accomplishing some great things.

The last couple weeks we have been researching different farming techniques and methods that we can pass on to the villagers. Our main goal is to create a sustainable farming system in Oditel so they no longer have to be dependent on aid.

We are working through an organization called Childrens Hope Chest, www.hopechest.org
While their goal is centered around orphans ours will be a little broader. Our goal will be having Oditel no longer dependent on aid within 5 years, which will have a significant positive impact on the orphans as well as the villagers.

We are looking forward to sharing this journey with you and welcome your support in any way that you care to give it.


Stay tuned for more updates soon.


Grace and Peace,

Luke
