Jordyn's off to Ghana

Jordyn left for her Humanitarian Service Tour to Ghana Africa on Thursday July 2, 2009. She was so excited and yet very nervous at the same time. She has wanted to go on one of these tours for a very long time. She is so excited to serve and to associate with the people of Ghana. She will have a very exciting and adventurous experience which I am sure will make her grow and mature in many ways. We are so proud of her and her desire to serve others. She is going to make an awesome nurse someday as she nurtures and loves the children of Africa.
At the airport
The Bishop and his wife. The bishop's wife makes amazing dolls and the bishop makes scripture covers to sell to the tourists. The Church is close to the temple.
A darling girl at the school that Jordy will be teaching and helping at. Jord loved her hair!
Jordy volunteered at the hospital the first day and took the vitals of many infant patients. Many were sick with malaria. She loved the experience and can't wait to go back.
This little girls name is Stephanie and she ran to Jordy after church for a hug.
This young man wants to marry Jordy and "share love" Yikes! She reminded me she had seen the movie Taken and that she would be smart. I told her to trust NOONE! They are in awe of the blonde hair and her beaustiful smile.
Home for 5 weeks
Some other children at the school. Jordy says that they love to get their pictures taken.

I think they might also be in awe of her retro 80's sunglasses. I love them!
