Presentation at Imago Dei Community this Sunday
This Sunday, March 12, our Lahash Africa 2005 team is reuniting here in Portland, and we'll be presenting to the church body at Imago Dei Community. We'll be there for all three services, showing some video highlights and giving a summary of our time there. We'd love for all of you Portland friends to make it! Afterwards we'll have some of the new DVDs available for free if anyone would like to take one home with them.

Parents are back from Sudan
My parents just returned from Sudan last night. They spent the past month and a half in the city of Yei Southern Sudan teaching and living with a community there. The people there are really desperate in life, and in constant danger from the militias and the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA.) One night the LRA was a mere 25 miles from the school and the class spent the night sleeping in the brush.

They also met up with Susan and Shirin from the Amazing Grace Orphanage, and were able to donate the items gathered from the friends here. I received an email from Ezbon this morning - he is about to head back up to Sudan from Uganda - and is eager to get the music video in circulation there.

Hey Kara!
Thanks! Ezbon said that they've mailed a couple proposals - including the one for the leper colony assistance - by post - so it should be here next week. I'm sending down a new DVD in the meantime.
