After today's commissioning, the Team met to pack our "second bags," bags of items to donate to the children of Zambia. Each team member will carry a bag of items to donate in addition to his/her bag of clothes and personal items. Our nine "second bags" are now stuffed with soccer balls, toys, stuffed animals, school supplies, clothes and other necessities for the children of Zambia. These items were generously donated by family, friends, members of FPCB and Andover Presbyterian Church (APC), the FPCB Sunday School, and a local 4-H Club.

| The Sunday School of the First Presbyterian Church of Branchville collected an offering for Zambia from September to June. They used the funds collected to purchase toys for the children our Team will work with at the Children's Homes in Zambia. |
