Baton Rouge en route to South Africa

I know I've posted it all over facebook, but I'm not sure if I've put it on here yet or not. But the big news is that I'm heading back to South Africa in May for a few weeks!!!!!! Oh happy day!!!!!!

I'm helping to lead a team of students from LSU and McNese University. Currently I am sitting in the Chi Alpha Cafe in Baton Rouge meeting with the LSU half of our South Africa team. There are nine people total from LSU, myself, and then probably 8 or 10 people from McNese (we are waiting for them to finalize their team line up).

I cannot even begin to express how excited I am to be leading this team! We will be spending two weeks in Pretoria, South Africa working with a Chi Alpha there. And I will be able to sneak off for a day or two to and visit my 'home' in Pietermaritzburg!!!!!! Again, OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!!

The countdown on my desktop now says 110 days until my feet are on South African soil!!!! Yay!!!!!!! I can't wait!!!!!!!

Until then......

(P.S. if you'd like to contribute financially to our trip to South Africa, leave me a comment and we can talk about the practicalities of that)
