{Just a quick editor's note:  I must apologize to all of our blog buddies who have been following Shavonne's mission adventures.  I have been slow to upload her letters these past few months.  I have many excuses, but not really interested in writing them all down.  It all sounds so much better in my head.  Please forgive me and enjoy some heavy reading...  Here at home we are all very proud of Shavonne and all she is doing in the service of our Lord.}
