One More Day!

Well, I am now less than one day away from leaving. Wow! I can't believe the time is finally here. We spent last night, all 12 of us, and our families and friends, together packing for the trip. I thought it would take forever but we were done in less than two hours. The prayer team came up to the Loft and prayed over us and there was a real peace in this mission. We all know we are going for a reason and that God will show us what that is as we get there. We did manage to fill all 24 footlockers to the brim, each weighing the maximum 50 lbs. with no trouble at all. I was amazed we filled them all, but thrilled that we had enough supplies to do so. I'm hoping we are able to meet their every need and want. We did a lot of juggling to make sure the lockers were not overweight so we don't have to pay the extra fees. Fifty pounds sounds like a lot until you start packing it all. Then those pounds disappear in no time at all!

Today my friend Kim came over and she packed my carry on for me. What a friend! We managed to get everything of mine in that little suitcase. Steve would be so proud (he left this morning for New Orleans on business)! There is even a little room to spare! Now all I have left to pack is my backpack which will carry all my cameras, and computer and stuff! So I am feeling a lot less stressed than I was this morning. With everything packed I can go out to dinner with my friends Kathy and Debbie and relax tonight! Hallelujah!

Tomorrow we meet at the airport at 10 am and the adventure begins. I can't wait to see where God leads us. All I know is I am ready for whatever happens. Again, I thank you for all your support. I love each of you very much.
