And They're Off!


Jordan team being prayed for on Friday at church before heading to the airport.



Sallie and Brittany loading up for the airport Thursday morning.

My Poor little car.... covered in sand....
Sallie and Robert left town this weekend for Nepal and Jordan.  I think it will be challenging for both of them.  Although it is only for one week, the days will be packed with work projects, orphange visits.  hikes into villages and on Robert's trip they will meet many Syrian refugees whose lives have been destroyed by the war.  The teams have prepared since January as best as they can to be ready for what the Lord lays before them this week. Skits, reading some good books, like The Word Came with Power, memorizing verses and spending time getting to know each other better. I pray that the Lord will be glorified as the kids serve and worship Him in the next several days.

And what did they leave behind? Mom and Dad missing them, for one thing..and a major bad sandstorm. My car was washed in the morning and looked like this later in the day. Yuck.

When Sallie gets home she will have turned 18.  I guess not everyone can say they turned 18 in Kathmandu. :)



"Bye Mom and Dad. See you soon. "
