Hello Friends and Family!
Tomorrow is the day! My flight leaves Dallas at 10:45am and I will arrive in Yaoundé,
Cameroon Friday at 4:40pm (Cameroon time). I will get back to Dallas on October 12th. My bags are packed and I am ready to go!
The last 3 1/2 weeks have been busy, but good! I stopped in Borger, TX; Loveland, CO; Bozeman, MT; then back to Ft. Collins, CO; and finally to Littleton & Parker, CO. I had the opportunity to see my friends and ministry partners and to meet new ones.
My sister’s wedding went smoothly and it was great to get to spend time with my family before leaving for Africa. We don’t have all of the pictures back, or I would attach one. While we were all together we took the opportunity to go white water
rafting….that was a first for me, and I loved it!
While I am in Africa, I can still be contacted by email and Skype. You can also keep up with me on my blog, PaulaOestreich.blogspot.com. I will try to update it as often as I can with pictures, information, and my “adventures” (adventures = stories of how I have embarrassed myself. )
P
Thank you for your continued prayer, support and partnership! This could not be done without you!
