Ready To Be The Hands And Feet Of The Lord!

Our team is anxiously awaiting our Friday departure time. Having spent months in prayer, planning, meeting, etc. we are ready to go! It is amazing what the Lord has already provided: 64 pairs of soccer cleats, soccer balls, jerseys, shorts, socks, shin guards, a variety of clothes for the adults and orphans, and almost ALL the finances we need for our trip! Can somebody shout AMEN!

What an amazing opportunity we have been given. Although traveling across the world to a Third World country can seem a bit scary, God has placed calmness in our minds and hearts. We know that God picked us and is going to use us to do HIS works-there is no better feeling in the world!

As we count down the days, please continue to pray for us...pray for safety and calming for our families, pray that we pack the appropriate materials, pray for strength and health, but most importantly, pray that God will stretch us and use us in ways we could never even imagine, and that everyone we come in contact with will know that we are there to show and spread the good word of Jesus.

Thanks for all you prayers and support! See you in South Africa!

I am praying for you all. I haven't figured out the time difference there yet. May the Lord give you strength, health, His power and energy as you travel to your desination and transition into the time zone and culture. I pray the Lord will be your rock and strong tower and the anchor of your soul.

Hey Everyone! The team has arrived in South Africa safely.
They are 7 hours ahead of us. Hopefully we will hear from them soon. Please keep praying; especially for a great nights rest for strong bodies to start their week. Peace to all! Adrienne
