In the beginning

We've made it through the hardest part! We've waited in the lines like pigs lead to the slaughter of the draining and nerve racking experiences of the airport. We've watched as our money gets changed into currency that we can't possibly understand and yet, it is all worth it to be surrounded by the swamp corps family with the thought of being connected with our future African swamp family. It's overwhelming the joy that we all feel. Every prayer and odd job taken to get here not only is it more than worth it, it is the fulfilment of a long term dream of many. We have surpassed the dream and are on the move. One world. One God. One swamp corps.
