Soon to Leave

Three teams will be going to the Hohidiai Clinic in Indonesia this next month. The first team has a variety of interests–medical, children’s work, English language training, video editing training and counseling. This will be a very rewarding time for our workers at the base. This first team is very skilled and prepared to give a lot of their skills and expertise.

The second team will be leading a staff retreat for our leadership. There will be about 30 leaders who will attend the retreat. The retreat will be a three day event. The theme is working together and understanding the differences we have. We want this to be a time of encouragement and refreshing.

The third team will be led by Jim Aldrich. They will be working in the medical, mechanical and micro-enterprise programs. Our fleet of vehicles will be upgraded. The processing of coffee for sale will be another step closer. A roaster has been purchased and we need two more pieces of equipment to have all we need to process the coffee from our 200 coffee trees.

Please remember these teams–there are a total of 15 people represented in these three teams. They have a lot to give and will come home with more than they imagined.
