Just in case you’re one of those few, here’s the necessary info:

Letter mail (USPS):

Jay Swanson
c/o Gateway
P.O. Box 2020
Lindale, TX 75771

Package type mail:

Jay Swanson
c/o Gateway
15862 Hwy 110 N
Lindale, TX 75771

Note that this will change slightly when I move to the ship, basically you’ll replace “c/o Gateway” with “MV AFRICA MERCY” which will basically alert them to set it aside to be sent to the ship.

Just got out of field service training for our time in Haiti, it’s gonna be intense. Prayer for that would be great. And I keep getting bit by some bug (twice now) outside that causes my lip and then the balls of my feet to swell up… annoying. Add that to being sick for the past two weeks and I guess I’m falling apart a bit.

But everything else has been awesome! Gateway is great, my classmates are tons of fun, and Texas has been more than hospitable. I am really excited to get to Africa though, a bit scared too if I’m being particularly honest.
