6 Days....

So, six days from now six other girls and I will be boarding a plane and heading to Zambia for part of out summer vacation. This little blog right here will chronicle our daily triumphs and struggles as were learn what it means to be a speech-language pathologist in Africa.

We will be living at the Namwianga Mission in Zambia. While we are there, we will be providing hearing screenings, and speech and language services for school aged kiddos, and doing some language enriching activities at The Haven, an orphanage for birth to 2 years.

This is an exciting adventure for all of us and we CAN NOT wait until the 16th. So get here soon. Follow us, pray for us, keep us in your thoughts. We will take all we can get.
