I'm leaving on a jet plane...
Well, technically three on connecting flights spanning 31:40 hours including layovers... :)
I leave Seattle this Friday night (the 8th) and arrive at 3:45pm Zambia time on the 10th (6:45am our time). Whew! Please pray for me as I am doing packing trials- pray that my stuff doesn't weigh quite as much as my bathroom scale reports... and that I don't have any hassles flying- especially getting through customs in Zambia and that all my baggage gets there!
I also have a slight setback for you to pray for... I received news today that there was a slight error in my funding and I am not receiving $140/month from a donor that I had thought I was. This- along with some other donations this weekend brought my total up to 100% of my support level. So, you can understand how this is slightly disheartening... but I know that God is good and He's taking care of me. Please pray with me that this $140/month will quickly be filled. It would be such a blessing for me even to know before I leave that this is taken care of.
Thanks so much for all of your love and support. I have truly enjoyed seeing and spending time with each of you. For those that I haven't been able to say, "See you later!" to in person, please know that I will look forward to our next meeting and catching up.
See you later!
