Quick Update
I am back in Greenville and officially done with Step 2/all my academic requirements before I leave for Africa in five days (that number kinda scares me, if I can be honest)! Thank you all for your prayers and support! I think it went well. We will see.
Fun fact from the trip: that was the first time I was referred to as "Dr. Meyer" by someone other than my patients. What's funny is that each time someone referred to me that way, I felt the urge to correct them. That being said, I didn't. I kinda liked the way it sounded.
My plan for the next five days (in case you were wondering) is to get all the details from the trip taken care of and all of the loose ends tied up. We'll see how that goes. I have my doubts...details aren't really my thing.
I will probably be back in Wilmington on Friday, and will likely stay there until I leave for Raleigh on Tuesday.
If you think to pray for me, please pray that I would be truly self-forgetful...and that I would take care of all the details that need to be taken care of.

Hey Everyone,
Sorry for the confusion and changes. My other blog (twigagoeshome.blogspot.com) was tied to a different account than my twigagoeshome@gmail.com account. When I closed the account, it closed the blog, and the site refused to allow me to use that name again. Thus, the new name: twigagoeshome2.blogspot.com.
For those of you who didn't read the original blog (tisk-tisk), this will be the place to get updates on my trip. So, feel free to make this your home page, add it to your toolbar, or otherwise solidify it as a part of your daily (or hourly, as the case may be) internet-browsing routine. As I hope I have sufficiently expressed, I am incredibly thankful to the Lord for each one of you and your continued support and encouragement. You have even made support raising an enjoyable experience (no small feat). So, thank you.
In Him,
Josh
PS: For those of you who missed the story about the name "twiga goes home"...here it is again: In high school I took my first trip to Africa. While there, I was nicknamed "twiga meupe" (pronounce twee-gah my-oop-eh) which is Swahili for "white giraffe." During that trip, the Lord solidified my love and passion for Africa and for missions. Each time I have returned to Africa, it has felt a little more like home. So, thanks to the Lords provision and your generosity and encouragement, "twiga" is going home on August 15 (that is my departure date, for those of you who asked).
