Leaving is Hours away.....

As we are trying to get things together to leave. The animals are all situated in various places. Plans have been made. Bags are getting packed... I sit here in amazement of Jesus! It is crazy to think a little less than one year ago, we began to plan this trip and now tomorrow morning we will be on our way. Please keep us in your prayers! We will be driving to Memphis in the morning to catch a plane to OH, then from there we will fly to Paris, France... on to St. Denis, Reunion Island. Arriving on Saturday (still friday in the states). Once we land in St. Denis we will have to rent a car and drive to St. Leu, Reunion Island, which is about 70 miles away. So this will be a long trip, please pray for us and our journey. Pray that God would be glorified and NOT us. Pray that we will shine HIS light and love. Pray that we all are healthy and remain that way until we return (and there after ;) ... Pray, Pray, Pray... Satan is real, he will try to take the joy of this trip but through the blood of Jesus, he wont. We love all of you and can't wait to tell you all about it when we return!!!! Talk to you in 13 days!!!

This is for Lori Palmer

Today the time changed!!! We are now on daylight saving time. Loosing an hour of sleep is difficult for me. haha. In 4 days we will be loosing 9 hours of sleep. Because in 4 days we will be on our way to Reunion Island!!! We are so excited and we know that God is going to do great things in and through us while we are there. There has been people saying we are simply going on Vacation... that is the furthest from the truth!!! It angers me and saddens my heart to think that someone would call our calling from the Lord a Vacation. I don't believe that God ever takes vacations and therefore we should never take vacations (never cease sharing His love). So to all of you who are downing our trip... I pray you get to see great rewards on our behalf. And even if you don't, I am not worried about that. We are doing exactly what God has called us to do, so you can either see it as a "God thing" or a self-centered decision. We are certain that HIS word does NOT return void!!!

On to better things...
We are now officially a group of six! A sweet couple from my home church in Tennessee gave Brad and Emily their frequent flyer miles and helped purchase their tickets!! We will all be there together! I am sure you are wondering what it is we will be doing while we are there... well....
We have 4 prayer walks scheduled. We will be visiting with an older man who has no family or friends. We will be leading the Bible end of a surf camp. (The missionaries are surf instructors.) We will be working on the inside of a church building and trying to get it all ready for the church to function at a working level. In the mist of this all we will be SERVING THE GREATEST GOD THERE EVER WAS, EVER IS, AND EVER WILL BE!!! Please keep us all in your prayers! We are all very excited and anxious at the same time. Thank you for your concern and love!!!
