Today's the Day!

Today's the Day! We're taking off from LAX @ 10:30 this evening. After a 5-hr flight to New York, we'll be hitting the longest leg of our journey: a 17-hr flight to South Africa, then a short hop to Lusaka, Zambia. We're looking forward to the time together as a team, and the many hours to brainstorm and clarify our ideas about what we'll be sharing at each of the two conferences. After divvying up the Conference assignments, our team leader, Mallory, and I will be leading the Dating Seminar, woot! We want to take a look at how God views relationships, and how we can practically apply those attitudes in the dating realm in a culturally relevant way. We have our task cut out for us!

Prayer Needs:

*Presence of mind --- packing everything we need

*Safe Travels --- to the airport, in the air, and in Lusaka

*Sensitivity to the Spirit --- as we plan our seminars, opportunities to Share the Gospel

P.S. It's not to late to contribute financially! Though we are leaving today, the church will be accepting donations while we are in-country. If you would like to make a donation, print out a response card which has all the information you will need (e.g., who to make a check out to, mailing address). You can also find the response card on the post two down, labelled "Financial Support." From a count a few weeks ago, I am at $1400 raised (~40%). Thank you for your prayers and financial support!
