One more step along the world I go

Today I embark on a new adventure. It will be my first ever visit to Africa where I will be doing mission-work with a group of guys from my church. We're flying to Lusaka, Zambia (via Ethiopia), then making our way up to the Northern copper-mining town of Chingola.

Our main task out there will be to start building work on a classroom. The team that went last year started to build a clinic, which we should be able to open this year. For more informaiton take a look here.

We'll be away for just under a month and I am really looking forward to it. I hope to experience a new culture, learn many new things and come back a changed person, but for now I really ought to complete my packing!
