Flight details

Monday nite i got an email with our flight details :) we were thinking we would have to drive to atlanta and fly out of there, but we are blessed that we can leave right out of charlotte. that will be very nice, especially upon our return :) as i was looking at the below times, i must say my eyes started tearing a little bit due to some separation anxiety for my family. i kinda chuckled to myself cause it is still a little over 2 months away! :) i have a feeling there will be tears... many tears.... definitely a prayer request!

I am getting excited! This week we have our first team meeting. We have 9 members headed out on July 9th. I will post the details as I get them. I have been so anxious to know more about our trip and what we will be doing. Hopefully, Angie (our pastor's wife and leader of our team) will be able to give us something to nibble on :) I have applied for my passport two weeks ago. My new passport should be headed my way end of next month :) I had applied for my first passport over 17 yrs ago, so it was a bit outdated. Makes me feel old. Part of my excitement is due to the fact that I will get to see and hug and spend some time with our girls, Mercy, Rahab and Gladys. They stayed with us in our home in November while they were here in Weddington ... 3 of the 2008 Daraja Choir members. I will also get to see Denzel, the boy we are sponsoring. He was also with the Daraja Choir. I didn't have to think twice when this opportunity came up. Immediately I knew I was supposed to go. I am leaving the money part up to God to provide!! He has provided in the past and I know he will now. Once I can figure out how to get a ticker on this post, I will add it so you can watch God at work. Well, that is all for now. Emma and I are working on some fundraising ideas. Any from you out there?
