...and a little PS from Janelle

The final pill count when we finally crawled away from the packing table this evening was 37,000. These were counted and put into individual tiny ziplok bags. Susan will probably tell you she counted 35,000 of them herself, but don't believe it. We were blessed to be able to do this work in a clean, well lit place and will be so glad when we are out in the villages in the coming days not to have to be counting these pills in the dark.
We're just getting ready now (10 pm) to load up the land rover that will be taking all the supplies and our stuff up to Karamoja. We have an early morning MAF flight and will be reunited tomorrow evening with our driver who is a Christian brother from here. Pray for him as he has a long, rough road trip tomorrow.
In other great news today, we learned that Dr. Simon will be joining our team on Monday. He is a Ugandan physician friend of Dr. Will's. We've not been sure of his availability due to other commitments. We're so thankful that God has opened the door as our dream from the beginning was that we would be a combined team with Ugandan medical staff. We're all appreciating Dr. Will who is such a hard worker with a servant's heart. We're missing Dr. Bob, but know he's praying for us often.
Keep praying for unity for us as we join the local ministry here tomorrow. We're so looking forward to being with them again!
