PREPARATIONS


Lutheran World Relief, Baltimore
JUNE 13 FOUND all five of the selected "Fellows" in Baltimore. The Fellows included Andrew Denecke fro Valporaiso, Mai Vu from Concordia Irvine, Tori Talbutt from Concordia Irvine, and Rebecca Monnier and Louisa Mehl from Concordia Nebraska. The Fellows have been chosen for the purpose of helping college students involved in fighting malaria in Africa through the Lutheran Malaria Initiative.

They are pictured here with Dr. John Nunes, President of Lutheran World Relief, and his pastor. Also pictured are Arnie and Ruth Sorenson and their daughter Esther. The Sorensons are responsible for the opportunity that each of the campuses has to get involved in the Lutheran Malaria Initiative. 

WHILE IN BALTIMORE, the five Fellows started orientation for what we will be doing while we are in Tanzania. Rebecca and I (Louisa) and the other Fellows will leave the United States on August 23 to embark on our ten day journey.

This is a record of our travels.
