Only two days left until we leave! Its crazy to think that this has all come together in just a months time! We were so blessed tonight by a sending service from our missional community. We ate a delicious meal together, hung out, sang a few songs and then everyone laid hands on us and prayed for us. Many of the kids had prayers for us as well. What an encouragement and blessing to know that we are so loved and supported by our amazing church family. This is just a taste of what heaven will be like! Brothers and sisters dwelling together in unity :) Here is a picture of us all from tonight.
Please pray for us as we prepare to go! I have found myself especially short tempered with the kids because I am constantly running around trying to get things done and frankly they are feeling pretty neglected! I have baby sitters lined up to help out over the next two days so hopefully that will help. But please pray that both Jody and I have joy, patience, and love for one another and the kids during this packing/planning phase. Also, please pray that our border crossing would go well. We have all our documents lined up, but I have never left the country for more than a short time of travel so I would appreciate prayers that the agent would have favour and understanding of our situation. I look forward to my next post- which should be coming in from Kona Hawaii!!!
Dear Lauren and Jody, Larry and I want to wish you both all the BEST as you begin this next phase of life! Such a bold move but I know you are being obedient to God's plans for you! I admire your courage! We send our prayers and love along with you! We look forward to hearing about how it all goes for you all!!!! Much love and many, many blessings, Lorraine and Larry xo xo xo
