Africa, here we come!!!!

Less then a year ago Alejandra at a missionary in South Africa called the store asking for help to make soap.  There was a TB outbreak at the time and regular hand washing with soap reduces the spread of TB by 25%.  After months of trying to teach soap making over the phone I said in frustration "I wish I could see what is happening with the batch of soap".  Alejandra jump at that statement and said Yes, please come to the missionary and teach the women here how to made soap. So at the end of October with a suitcase of soap making equipment we are off to South Africa.  We have two goals.  The first one is to make as much soap as we can for the people in the townships.  Goal number two is to teach women how to make soap. 
I am grateful I have a skill I can share, excited to be going to South Africa to help the people there and a little scared the soap will not turn out right.  If the soap doesn't turn out they will know how not to make soap!
