Welcome to the Zambia Missions team from First Baptist Church of Woodbridge, supporting the Mission of Love Community Orphanage in the Southern Province of Zambia. The first orphanage was completed after more than 4 years of hard effort in the bush, and on February 12, 2010 opened its doors to the first 8 orphans! Since it's completion, the orphanage has taken many additional children! Praise God who is always faithful!

The main slideshow was updated last week while I was on travel. Steve - thanks for the pictures so we could show what the 2008 Zambia Team accomplished while on mission in Africa.

Home, Bittersweet, Home
The team arrived safely at 12:45 pm at Washington Dulles. Again we were blessed by God with smooth passport and customs processes and no lost bags. (Kudos to British Airways, too.)
Thanks to all of the family and friends who met us at the airport!
A reminder to the team: finish out your malaria pills for the full 7 days after returning home.
I am sure that everyone was happy to return home, yet wishing to have been able to stay in Zambia to continue completing the orphanage, outreaching and witnessing to the Tonga people, and helping all of our new friends in Zambia. Praise God for his care and providence!
