Just a quick update to turn your attention to the sidebar of the blog, which I have been updating to indicate how much has been donated for our trip.  A HUGE THANKS to all of you who have donated – we are up to $3,500 so far – 35% of the total needed for all 4 of us.  The thanks is not only from us, but from the Sera people, many of whom will receive the Bible in their hands for the first time ever as a direct result of your gifts.
