Goodbyes and hallos...

After Zambia the yellow team was sad to have to say goodbye to Lena but our tears soon turned to smiles when we got to meet our last team member, Margot! As some of you might know Margot missed out on the 6week Zambia training and only joined us now. With a new country came a new team member!

We, Wesley, Tjaart, Zylna and Jana, are overjoyed to have finally met her and can't wait to get to know her a little better. In China we'll be spending most of our time in our small groups helping out where we can, this is the perfect oppertunity to get to know Margot a little bit better and we can't wait! We're thinking of an few things to formally welcome her into our team... If you have any ideas feel free to let us know! Have no mercy!! ;-) Only kidding...

Our joy did not come without a price. We had to say goodbye to Lena... As you might know Lena joined the GCX team for the FCE training but is not part of the team. She went back home and will be completing her studies this year. Lena raced to Zambia with the yellow team and became our 6th member. To say goodbye was not as aesy as one would think! After 6 weeks she became not only a team member but a dear friend and beloved sister! Lena, we miss you terribly and we're all having serious conversations with the Big Boss about that visit!

Tommorow we're off to mainland China, yellow is looking forward to the challenge and hope that you would all keep on praying for us. (Especially for the girls as the boys can be a hand ful sometimes.. :-)

Untill next time yellow says have a slice of custard crumble cake and how many teaspoons of sunshine do you take?

 Yellow love!
