Day 0 - departure day
This evening, the remainder of the team will depart for Nicaragua. There will be 4 of us departing - Pastor David, Kyle, Danielle, and me. Sarah and Susie left two days earlier to begin working on the logistics of transportation, lodging, camping, etc. Thanks S&S for all the preparation for our arrival despite our first encounter today.
So Danielle and Kyle were supposed to have left yesterday but due to some unforeseen troubles at the security gate, they got held back resulting in missing their flight. Praise God they were able to reschedule with no rebooking fees and now they will be flying out around the same time that David and I will be flying out. I hope they can look back on this and appreciate the extra night of sleep in their own bed as they have been sleep deprived due to string of events that lead up to today. Thank you God.
I am thankful for so many things I've witnessed over this last week (in no particular order). Thank you God for allowing me to count our blessings this week.
In this coming week, I know there will be challenges unforeseen and unplanned. Please watch over us as we embark on the mission making disciples of all nations.
Please pray for:
