Ecuador Agenda

Well, I'm almost packed, almost.  I've been so busy this week!  I've gotten the clothes tagged for the consignment sale I participate in every August done.  Good thing 'cause drop off is the day after I get back.  I've cleaned the house so all our babysitters won't think we live like pigs.  I've lost count of the number of loads of laundry I've done.  There's more to come once Madeline returns home from camp today.  Last but not least are the errands run to pick up snacks and more zip*loc bags.  Zip*loc bags are a travelers best friend! 
I won't be on here for a while so before I go I'd like to ask you to please pray for our team and our families while we're gone.  You can check our missions page on face*book all next week.  You don't have to have an account just go here:  http://www.facebook.com/HGBCMissions
