Banquet Report ... Congo Video ... Trip Details

We have a great report from last Saturday's Congo fund-raising banquet: More than $3,700 was raised toward the vision trip this coming July!

We are thankful for the generosity of Elim's friends and members, and for the way all of you have embraced this short-term mission with your whole hearts.

Also, we have just uploaded a revised copy of the Elim Congo Vision Trip preview video. This is very similar to the video we showed last Saturday evening:



For your information, here are the current details about the trip:

Three team members (Pastor Martin Schlomer, Dr. Cal Kierum, and Linda McCoy) plan to leave Seattle on July 17 and return July 31. Their flight will take them to Kinshasa (on the western edge of the Democratic Republic of Congo), and from there they will take a small plane to Gemena (in the northwestern portion). They will work in Gemena and at a Free Church-supported hospital called "Tandala" until their flight back to Kinshasa, then home.

Stay tuned to this site for more information as it develops!
