T.I.A..... This Is Africa!!!

we are here safe and sound after only a few delays in columbia and atlanta. we are IN AFRICA!!!! God has belessed us with great flights and we trust that he will continue to bless our ministry as we minister to the people of old naledi.
we are in the jo-burg airport for the next 15 hours..... yes - 15 hours... part of the new international travel regulations kept us from being able to have a layover any shorter than 2 hours.... but our attitudes are fantastic!!!
we met some groups on our flight that are doing mission trips to malawi- we will pray for them and their group(s) as they serve the Lord by serving others this week!!!
we are tired and look forward to our night of "sleep" in the airport while taking turns bag-watching.
we love you guys and covet prayers. thank you and God bless!!!

we leave in the morning.... bags are packed, weighed, and weighed again.... the day is finally here, and the countdowns can now hit "zero." our group has been counting down the days for the past several months...
please pray for safe travel and the God will open MANY doors for us to share the gospel... we will keep you posted as often as possible...

the week of:

we are starting to pack up all of our supplies this week. it's hard to believe that the past year of planning, training, and raising funds has finally turned into "go time." i can't wait to see what God will do in us and through us! please begin now to pray for safe travel.
