And they're off.....
>> 22 Jul 2008
Ok, after a long, long search and lots of prayers and conversations we've finally got a plan.
We're hoping to go to Bangladesh for 9 months starting from the end of September 2008. We're going with a Christian charity called Oasis who work with communities and churches to show Christs love to those in need.
Nicola will be working with the 'Stop the Traffik' Campaign to help women and children who are sold as slaves all around the world. She will be working alongside those who have been trafficked as well as trying to change government policies and intiatives.
Andy will be helping to set up a Fair Trade factory producing products made from Bamboo. The factory needs a designer to help create product ideas and arrange set up of the factory and shipment of goods. The factory will provide much needed jobs for some of the poorest people in the slums of Dhaka.
Alongside all that we will be joining up with the growing Christadelphian Community in Dhaka with the hope of learning from and supporting the family there.
But in the mean time.... theres lots to do, funds to be raised and things to be organised. We both hope you'll be able to support us in our fund rasing efforts by either sponsoring us or coming to our Barn Dance Extravaganza (Sept 6th).
More details to come soon!
