On The Ground in Liberia

Well it's been a long time in the planning stages, but today, at approx. 2:00pm EST Mom, Emmalee and Phylis landed in Liberia. They called my cell as they were being driven from the airport to the Lot Carey School where they will begin teacher training on Monday morning. The trip went well and there were no issues with oversize baggage (we sweated that). All luggage made it from Dulles airport to Brussels and finally to Liberia. Amazing when you think about it. Mom has promised daily phone calls (she is armed with an international cell phone thanks to Joy Hancock, a young woman who made hers available on loan). I will update this blog as time permits. Of course I urge everyone to visit the LOEP blog where mom will post messages from Liberia when she has Internet access. She's promised pictures too! Please them in your thoughts and prayers as they continue on this most excellent adventure. There is a link to the LOEP blog on the homepage of this blog. Check it out.
