As I mentioned earlier, we are praying about the possibility of Shannon going to Tanzania again in September. We found out today that he will need to ask for nearly three weeks off from work to be able to go. That would be just for the time in Tanzania. He would leave the team and head home on the day they would continue on into Burundi.
We believe Shannon only has two days of vacation "on the books" due to all of the changes at his work now that it has gone from privately owned to corporately owned. We do not know if his supervisor will even consider this much time off. Shannon is hoping to speak with him tomorrow, explaining to him the long-term plans and how this trip is so very important because of the itinerary including visits to other children's homes in the area.
Please pray that if God wants Shannon there this fall, his supervisor approve the time off. If that happens we will then need to address the financial end of the trip as well as child care needs. I will need help with the children here on the home front as I carry my two part-time jobs and deal with the needs of 5 children, two of which have special needs. Thanks for your prayers.
