Friday Pick of the Week

Zambia Flag Map full size
Happy Friday, friends.  Today's pick is chosen for a little different reason.  Last Friday, I was offered a one year HIVCorps fellowship with the Center for Infectious Disease Research in Zambia (CIDRZ).  CIDRZ is a non-governmental organization based in Lusaka, Zambia that partners with UAB to do cutting-edge research in HIV/AIDS.  After days of prayer, deliberation and seeking advice, Rachel and I accepted the position on Wednesday.  While this throws a kink in some of our short-term plans, we are unanimous in that this is an opportunity that holds tremendous benefits for us.  Rachel will interview next week for a position with CIDRZ, and if she is offered a position, it will be another answer to prayers.


Anyway, enough about that; you are here for the Friday Pick of the Week.  Given the circumstances, I couldn't imagine a better selection than Toto's "Africa."  If you'll take the time to watch the video, you will basically experience the entirety of our next year. Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
