Where in the World is Burkina Faso??
The number one most frequently asked question that I've heard over the past few months (besides "are you crazy") is, "where is Burkina Faso?" Rather than explaining that it is a landlocked country, sandwiched between Mali, Niger, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Benin and Togo, I have decided to attach a map so that you can for yourselves. For more information on Burkina Faso, visit http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/country_profiles/1032616.stm
Tomorrow is the beginning of Staging here in Philadelphia. It is a two-day event before we leave for Africa on Tuesday. At staging is where I will meet the others that I will be working with while in Burkina, I receive all of my vaccinations and I will receive some very high level information about life in Africa. The ins and outs of sanitizing my drinking water, how to change the breaks on my bike and how to pound millet into an eatable form will all be covered in-country. Should be quite an adventure...

Hi Yvette. It was great to see you last week, although the circumstances were less than favorable. You've grown into a beautiful young lady, and I am extremely proud of you and your strength to accomplish the things you're doing. Keep your chin up and God will continue to shine upon you!
