Well, it's been a week now since the team flew out of Atlanta to being thier time in Jeffreys Bay, South Africa.  Along the way we've had a few bumps, but the Lord is in control of it all.  To start with we had 3 individuals (2 participants and a leader) who were still waiting on their visas to arrive on Monday.  We rescheduled their flights for Wednesday and all three received their visas by then and got on the plane.  On Tuesday, as the team was arriving in Johannesburg and going through customs, one of our leaders somehow could not located her passport.  It was either lost or stolen between getting off the plane and reaching customs.  Unfortunately, the border guards would not let her in country and instead put her on a plane the next day to head back to Canada (her home country).  Meanwhile, the other three arrived safely and joined up with the team on Thursday.  Then on Saturday, two more of our leaders flew out to head over there.  They arrived last night and now the whole team (with the exception of one) is there.  They all spent the weekend at a camp in the bush and will begin their regualar schedule today.  The should be able to get on the internet this week, so look for updates on their personal blog pages.
