One week to go...

Team Update:

The time is moving quickly toward our departure. It is moving quickly towards the goal that we have all been working hard for. The day that we embark on this journey for the glory of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ is almost at hand.

When we all agreed to trust God for this trip to happen we knew only He could provide.

God has provided!

All our money is in! God keeps His record of 100% provision. In the past 8 trips that we have done as a student ministry God has always come through. No one has ever stayed home because of a lack of money!

Everyone has their passport. They are gathering their supplies. Team shirts have been made and we are ready to go.

We ask that you would continue to pray for us. We need prayer to get not just our minds but also our hearts prepared for this trip. I have a belief that God will show up in powerful and miraculous ways. We need to be ready to follow the Spirit of God as He leads us in courage, wisdom, and power!

-Pray for our hearts that they will submit to the will of God and love with His love.
-Pray that we will preach the gospel clearly and frequently.
-Pray that many will respond with faith to the word of God.
-Pray that the love of our words and our actions will bring peace, joy, and compassion to many.

As we have shared before, our goal is to update once a day while we are on this trip. So tune in next Friday for our first daily post about the progress of this journey. Sign up on the side bar as a follower to this blog and you'll get updates whenever someone posts.

We are so thankful for all our families and friends that gave generously towards the finances of this trip. And, we are indebted to the numerous prayers that have already gone heavenward on our behalf!
