Jason to Africa

Jason left today to Uganda and Ethiopia with a group of 35 or so people on a 'Visiting Orphans' mission trip.   Some things they are doing are playing and spending time with lots of orphans and helping fix up some families homes.  I know they are doing much more, I don't know exactly, but the links to some of the organizations they are working with are below.
We were at the airport by 4am this morning and Jason got checked in and made it to Charlotte and DC smoothly.  He is currently on his way to Addis Ababa (the capital of Ethiopia) then they take another flight to Entebbe (city in Uganda - maybe the capital?).  Addis Ababa is where we will be heading eventually to visit our son, once we have a referral.  So that is exciting for me as Jason gets to check out the city first.
I will keep updating as I hear from Jason (I hope Skype works).  Please pray for safety and life changing events for everyone.
