I sit here in the Dulles airport with some trepidation, anticipation, and fatigue. We left home yesterday, driving to Portland to fly out last night, headed to Cameroon. it has been a year and a few months since we were there. I look forward to being at Avava and Valantine’s wedding. I look forward to doing surgeries that will help people that may not get help otherwise. I want to see my friends. The trepidation comes from getting there. Will the customs agents hassle me? Will all of our luggage make it? All but 1 1/4 pieces are hospital supplies. There is some much needed lab equipment in the check-ins. Will the police stop us along the road asking for money to let us pass? When we leave US soil it is with all these emotions and more. We will be there a few weeks. We also look forward to seeing our missionary friends in Chad, because we think we may be able to!
So as we (three of us) start this trip we ask for your prayers. That God would make us useful for the population we will serve both medically and spiritually. We are taking over items that many of you have either donated or helped purchase, by donations. Thank you again, on behalf of the Koza Adventist Hospital and the population it serves. Sincerely, Greg
