UPDATE ON SCHEDULE

YESTERDAY - met with Natasha and did our planning, shopped for food and saw the increase of food prices - dreadful for our families here. We also met with John and Christa for more planning. John is the President of Mercy Foundation. Some very exciting things will be happening there and with the new International University of Central Asia.

TODAY - heading to "Jessica's family" soon. Will take food and lots of love to them. Then out to the Kemin Senior Home. It is National Woman's Day today. So we will be blessing the women with something special - maybe cakes and goodies. Then preparation for training tomorrow in Bishkek. Ruby is training on Attachment, Separation Issues with a group from SOS Villages and our own staff here from Tokmok.

AND - our first wave of the team arrives - John, Julie, Bekah and Emma arrive early in the morning, so we will do dinner with them tomorrow night - if they can stay awake after their LONG journey!

All for now - keep tuned.
