Packed and Ready!

The energy on Tuesday night at the Cedarbrook Center could have fueled two jumbo jets to Peru and Honduras and back!  What a night!  The teams met for the "packing party" and "weigh-in" ...

A few of us were a little nervous as the scale was placed between a ladder and a TV cart ... not sure if that set-up would hold what we were about to hang on it ... but, we were relieved to see that it was only the bags that were being weighed ... not the team members!

After a little juggling and adjusting, it was all smiles for team leaders and their team ... we are "packed and ready!"

The Peru Team takes off for the airport tomorrow morning (Thursday) and the Honduras Team follows close behind on Friday noon.  Please pray for us in the following ways during the next couple days:

• Pray for smooth transitions through airports, security and making all our connections.
• Pray for safe travels, no sick-i-ness, and a safe arrival at our ministry destinations.
• Pray for good connections with our on-field hosts.  There is currently a public transportation strike going on in Peru!
• Pray for our families as we leave loved ones behind and go serve others as the hands and feet of Jesus.  There is always a price that others pay that goes way beyond the financial part as we send members of our family to go and bring God's love to others in tangible ways.  Pray for peace, comfort and joy in the lives of "the senders."
• Pray for opportunities to "shine our lights" as we interact with others during our travels.  We want to give accounts for the hope that is within us!  (1 Peter 3:15)

We love you all and we're taking you with us!  Watch for future updates from Honduras and Peru!!
