What a beautiful day we had as we arrived at the Church, gathered our bags, and prayed with the folks who came to send us off with love and laughter. We can feel the prayers of everyone! The picture of Skip's pickup shows our 14 bags of supplies and stuff (Yes, we are 2 over the limit and each bag is close to, or at, 50 pounds each--Praise the Lord!) There's a picture of the team and then our extended family who came to pray and send us off. (Nate Keller is taking the picture.)
Our trip to Virginia was uneventful. We only drove as far as Shamokin Dam before Nick and Ben, who said he's always hungry, needed food. All successful mission trips to Africa begin by stopping at Burger King....I think?!?
We finished our day with dinner at the Macaroni Grill in Reston. Tomorrow the team meets Ethiopian Airlines.
God is GREAT ALL the time!
