Tomorrow morning I am off to Chatham for my friend Jackie's wedding. She's marrying an amazing man, Kevin... the two of them are so special and couldn't deserve each other more! Sunday morning we are off to the Toronto airport! There are 5 of us travelling there together (2 are the bride and groom and the the other two make up the lovely couple that is driving us there). I am leaving Toronto on Sunday night, to arrive in Germany on Monday morning. Normally I would catch a plane to South Africa at the airport in Germany, but I am staying with family until Friday, when I will finish the plane ride. I will arrive in Durban on Saturday morning to be greeted by the family I will be staying with. I found out that they live in Mobeni and have 2 children, a boy and a girl. I can't wait to meet them!
On Sunday, which will be July 1 (Canada Day!), we have our orientation. The orientation continues on Monday and then Tuesday will be our first day in the clinics.
As for prayer requests: Today I went to a building site run by Habitat for humanity, in London. I was able to see what they are doing there; it is awesome. They are building 2 houses this year and will build 2 more next year. As you know, the 6 of us going to El Salvador will also be building houses (although very differently). You can pray for all of the people around the world who will be receiving houses this year, that they may feel safe and loved, in a place to call their own.
