Greetings!
     I have been busy today getting two boxes ready to ship! I know they had said I would have to fill out customs forms...but I didn't know that each form only allows 4 items, and I have to put description for each with weight, quantity, and value. The first box, in the large flat rate box took 6 custom forms! The second one used only 2. I had to stop because I ran out of forms! I will take the first two boxes in to the post office in the morning and pick up a stack of forms I guess! I did even decide to take out some stuff to store here instead of shipping them. How do you decide on what (2) single hole puncher weighs? I looked up what I had in the boxes on amazon.com, picked as close as I could get to what I had, and used the shipping weight it listed...and sometimes I tried to estimate it if I had to. That part wasn't too bad, but when I had to write out my address and the address of where I am sending it about killed me. I had to press hard...it had to go through 6 sheets. And I had to do it 8 times! Well, I better get ready and keep working on them!
     I met with someone at Grove Level today about getting approved to work with them in missions...for my missions. I had two packets of information to fill out...one was an application for missions with Grove Level and the other was a Readiness Assessment Evaluation for prospective cross-culture workers.
I will drop that off Thursday...when we are out that way. He said that after they get the paper work back and go over it. We will have another meeting after that.
     OK, Majuro Baptist Christian Academy has about 300 students from K4 through high school. Students are only required to attend school through the 8th grade, however they still offer through 12th grade. I believe they had 4 Sr. last year going onto college.

Have a blessed day!
