Preparing to go!

I am leaving in less than 2 weeks and I am pumped! There is so much to do and time is flying by, but it is exciting. Last night the 6 of us from First Baptist met with the teams from Cambridge and Mississauga who are going to El Salvador with us. It looks like there are a lot of great people who will be serving Emmanuel Baptist Church in San Salvador. I spent the majority of the day looking for N95 masks to take to South Africa, and I think/hope I accomplished that! It's time to start packing for both trips... nothing can get you more in the mood than starting to pack the suitcase! Please pray that I am adequately preparing to leave, both physically and spiritually. God bless!

Hi Katie
I read your article about looking for N-95 masks. I wondered if you were fit tested for the N-95. The SARS scare in ontario taught us a great deal about the effectiveness of the N-95. I am a certified mask testor and I see alot of people fail the test sometimes related to facial hair, or a long narrow face or the bridge of the nose. If you want to be sure of effectiveness a fit test is a good idea. Also remember to properly apply and remove personal protective equipment so as to keep yourself safe!! I wish I was going with you!! Keep me up to speed
