Lauriana called us this morning from Dulles Airport (Washington D.C.) where the Malawi team was making a connection to Orlando. She only got to talk about 3 minutes, but she was excited and emotional. She said she couldn't wait to see us (of course) that the trip was AWESOME!!! and that she wanted pizza, milk and oreos to eat when she got home. I've read other team reports where they says what they are looking forward to most is flush toilets and hot showers. Most, if not all, the teams have ... Continue reading ...

I called TeenMissions HQ yesterday because we weren't sure when Lauriana and her team were scheduled to return to the US. I looked and looked on the website, then called, and they said that information wasn't on the website, but that the team was scheduled to land in Orlando tomorrow, Saturday (07AUG2010) at about 2:20 p.m. What we already knew is that she would be flying home Wednesday, August 11, arriving at Tulsa International Airport at 4:55 p.m. My guess is that they are already en route,...

Just a reminder to all you who are following along here that Friday July 23 should be the last day you mail a letter to Lauriana in Malawi because it takes at least 2 weeks to get there and they're leaving to come back to Orlando August 7 (I think), so after this Friday, write to the Orlando address that is on the home page of this site. She really likes the letters, so let's swamp her with them to encourage her and let her know we are thinking of her! A new Malawi Foot Washing team report is ... Continue reading ...

Hello everyone! Today is the day that my journey begins!! I have spent the past few days in Orlando Florida with my family, vacationing and relaxing just a bit before my mission starts. I've been experiencing my ''lasts.'' the last hot shower, the last time I get to use a soft squishy pillow, the last time I get to taste a perfect steak.... yeah. It's kinda sad. I'm incredibly excited though!! My fellow team mates are mostly already at Boot Camp, and I will be joining them in a few short hour... Continue reading ...
