A worker in Pakistan wrote: "Come before Winter. There are some things you just can't put off. The winter snows are coming, the passes will close, and the kids will start dying. Pakistan already lost thousands of children when schools and homes collapsed in the quake. I was going to wait to write you until we returned home...But that will be too late. We can't wait until December. January will be too late. We need to get people and money here NOW. Come before winter."

An update, some changes

There have been some significant changes in the plans to go to Pakistan. EMM has decided to organize its own teams. So instead of going to Phoenix for orientation, I will be leading a team from Pennsylvania. This allows us to take a lot more people to work. We will still be connecting with the same in-country agency, so we do not have to stress about alot of the details there.
Also, we have discovered that this will be akin to wilderness camping so there is a lot of logistical work ahead. Anyone in the area with camping equipment they are willing to lend, there will be people looking.
