We are typing this message from Montego Bay, Jamaica! WOOHOO!
We left Montevideo last night and spent the night in St. Paul then got up at 4:23 am in order to get to the airport in time. Besides having to rearrange some luggage to stay under the weight limits and getting a jar of peanut butter taken away, everything with our flights to Miami and Montego Bay went well. We spent the day getting to know the California team, hanging out at the beach, having orientation, and grocery shopping. It still does not quite seem real to us that we're actually here. However, a few more hours in this hot and humid weather may make it a reality for us. Here are a few more prayer requests:
*Pray for the children that we will be interacting with for the next few days at Robin's Nest.
*Pray for unity in our team and the California team.
*Pray for our team's safety as the driving here is quite scary. Praise God for our wonderful driver, Mikey.
Thanks for your prayers! We will hopefully be able to write again soon!

Hi Amy and friends,
ReplyDeleteIt was great seeing you in my green shirt. Glad you made it there safe and sound. I had to laugh about the peanut butter. On my way home from Hawaii I also had a jar of peanut butter taken away. I was a little put out when they did it. I started to argue a tad and Lanny brought me back to reality. Your mission while there sounds incredible. Stay safe.
