Sewing pockets

Zambia here we come. This is Darcy writing. Jeff is the usual blogger. I wanted to update everyone on the task I have been working on. I am currently making a pocket chart. That is a large piece of material that I am sewing pockets onto. It looks like a grid of pockets. This is used to find out a community's current sanitation practices. It allows you to ask a variety of questions across the top and have a variety of answers to choose from along the side. Then, in private, people can go and put a pebble in the pockets of their choosing, like voting. It is great too because you can use pictures to convey the meaning for people who don't read or speak your language.

Thank you to everyone who is keeping track of what we're doing. It definitely makes us feel loved to realize all those who are interested. We're excited to serve and consider it a privilege.

Ta Ta for now.
