    It was a quiet first day back.  I worked on some scheduling and discipline paperwork.  I got to talk with the Technology Specialist for the elementary side.  She had been home to Ireland over Christmas and then got a bad bug.  It was nice to see her back up and working.  I was blessed today with my first check for the Africa trip and a couple of promises to help.  I spend some time over lunch checking out a cool website on Kenya.  It is exciting to see God’s faithfulness in enabling me to go, but even more exciting to daily yield myself to Him.  I pray that this trip will be a blessing for all who go and to all we come in contact with.  I pray that the Lord uses each one of us for His glory! 
    Sunday I found out that Rob Mancuso may be going with us.  He was a year ahead of me at Elon.  He lead a men’s Bible study my sophomore year and was part of a religious life house my junior year.  I spent most of my time there hanging out with him and the other guys.  My parents would call there before my own room to find me :-D.  I hope he is able to come.  I miss him and his wife.  I wish they lived closer.
