Wednesday, July 13th (part one)
Safe and sound in Honduras—exactly what you all wanted to hear. The groups of people from Memphis, Pennsylvania, Sarasota, Orlando, Alabama (Canada) are already active in the work here. I will write later to give you all the details of our first and second days…but for now, I want you all to understand the communication procedures.
Please take time to thank all of our point people—I love them all for the fabulous job they are doing already. These great individuals Allen, David, Karen, Laurie, Ryan, Mardee, Mrs. Roberts, Rachel, and Trish are the “middle men”. I E-mail to them; they forward my message onto all of you in the States. The Internet can be a little crazy at times, and it helps to send to fewer people. Please remember that for responses, you need to E-mail directly to me at Missions35@msn.com. DO NOT “Reply” to the E-mail you are receiving. If you do so, it will go to one of our point persons (not to me).
Remember when E-mailing TORCH members:
DO NOT HIT “reply”
In the subject line, type “TORCH-[name of person to whom you are writing]”. I receive a great deal of junk mail and start the process of checking mail by deleting everything not labeled TORCH.
No forwards, please.
Be patient, time is limited—and even that time doesn’t always work out because the Internet may be down.
Other communication involves the blogspot. http://www.childrenoftheking.blogspot.com/ The exact same information in the E-mails will be available on the blogspot and on the links found on the blogspot. However, the blogspot will also contain pictures.
Originally, I had planned to handle all correspondence. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am flying back to the States. I leave you in the very capable hands of Brandy Barnett of Mississippi (and Freed). She (and a few other crew girls) will be corresponding from this point on. Please be patient and considerate as Brandy has graciously agreed to step up into this new role.
Gracias,
JMA
