I just came from having tea and praying with a friend about the incredible journey the Lord is placing us on. She specifically asked that God would bless us today to encourage us. Well....when I came home and checked the mail, there was a check waiting for us designated to help with our airfare to Benin! Our first donation! Thank-you God!
What does the next few months look like for us before we fly out on August 1st?
We will leave Lynden, WA on June 4th and travel to Deb's brother's place in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. We will spend a day or two there and then travel to Montana/North Dakota to see Mike's dad (who is now 90) and try to raise some support at our old church in Froid, MT. From there we will finally take the kids to Mt. Rushmore. Then we will head to Lindale, Texas for training for 5 weeks at the Mercy Ships International Operations Center. We will leave Lindale on July 18 and head to Deb's parents in Victoria, B.C., Canada. Then we will spend a few days with Mike's brother Tim on Bainbridge Island, WA and then fly out of Seattle August 1. (And Deb was looking forward to a quiet summer with the kids!)
