Details About My Upcoming Trip To Burundi - Central Africa

This Friday, March 26th, I'll be flying out to Burundi.

Note: Burundi is the small country south of Rwanda and East of Congo in the map below. 

My trip will be for teaching or really facilitating a class called: "Ethnicity, Diversity, and Culture". 

This class is apart of a Masters degree in Organizational Leadership. I will be in the country for approximately 7 days then returning home. (The class will resume via email for about 3-4 months after I return.)

The organization that I am hired to teach through is called Development Associates International. Their vision is to "enhance the integrity and effectiveness of Christian leaders worldwide so that the Church can fulfill its role in extending the Kingdom of God."

This is my first overseas trip so I expect to have tons of photos and a lot to share about the experience. Please check back to this blog to see photos and hear what it was like. 

If you'd like, you can also just put your email address in the form at the top right and you will receive and instant email updates anytime I update this blog. 

So that's about it. . . If you have any questions just shoot me an email or put it in the comments area below. 

Lastly, please pray for me and my family throughout next 10 days - I'd really appreciate it. 

Thanks-
