They made it! The flight from Libreville to Mouila was uneventful (that is a good thing!)
Carolyn Thorson, a nurse at Bongolo Hospital, met them at the airport and treated them with a coke and a donut on the way out of town. A small delay, when they had to return to the airport for a forgotten passport. Praise the Lord, a person was found to let them back in the locked up airport and the passport retreived!
The road was in good shape and they made back to Bongolo by 6:30. On the way, there was one scary moment, a boy came on to the road out of the weeds and they came close to hitting him! That is a huge concern when driving there, everyone shares the road and the roads are lined with tall grasses.
Karen Fitch, a nurse, had dinner for them, really good homemade icecream that Becky Thompson made and brownies made by Deborah Walker.
After a good nights rest, the team is ready to start working!

Mark & Jonathan,
Blessings to you in Bongola. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as God uses you as His willing servants. Shirley is going to WSU with Susie tonight, will try to stay in touch with her while you are gone. How is Jonathan feeling?
