Medical Team Comes Home

Well we made it home after a brief respite to South Luwangua National Park to see some of the beauty Africa holds – it’s land, it’s animals and it’s people.

Well we made it home after a brief respite to South Luwangua National Park to see some of the beauty Africa holds – it’s land, it’s animals and it’s people. We spent 2 days enjoying early morning and evening safaris, meals together and time to read, nap or just be. We all agreed that ending the trip this way was much needed after spending so much time seeing the tremendous needs of the community. It gave us an opportunity to let the week’s work settle a bit and reenergize us before the long trip home.

The Masalas saw us off at the airport and we all felt a sense of sadness as we said goodbye to our Zambian family and the county we grew to know so well. The trip home was long as we were all anxious to see our loved ones. Everyone was still full of thoughts and ideas of how we can best serve this community. There is much to be done as we gathered so much information.

As we return to the states we will start to process all this information and see what’s next. We look forward to sharing our experince and introducing you all to the many faces we met. Please feel free to ask us questions or join us for a BBQ on June 4th. We could not have accomplished this mission without the love, prayers and support of each one of you. Thank you all!
