Team Mhlosheni

Team Mhlosheni met last weekend for an educational retreat. We learned about Swaziland and about HIV/AIDS, about Swazi customs and history, and we picked up our first rudimentary greetings in the Siswati language. In the progress we learned a little about each other and managed to capture our first team photo.

First row: Amanda Larsen; Karen Hawley; Erica Brandelious; Michelle Smith; Erin Mueller.

Second Row: Phil Pearson; Angela Pearson; Susan Slaon; Rob Sloan; Janel McCoy; Sharon Hocking; Dave Grey.

Third Row: Rod McCoy; Michael Thelander; Shawn Bucher.

(Names in italics are set to travel in the trip this November, most of the others will travel in Spring 2009.)

Wish us well, and please keep the people of Mhlosheni in your prayers!
