Blast Off

Can you believe it is time to leave already? When I arrived 2 weeks ago it seemed we had lots of time before the group arrived and here we are........ We are ready and waiting your arrival. We are praying for God's mercies as you ALL travel.
The next weeks will hold a lot of experienced as you know. I pray that each of you "put yourself" out there for God to use. You allow yourself to experience ALL God has to show you and that lives will be changed because you become totaly selfless. I pray that you leave behind in the states your fears, your comforts, your wants, your expectations and your wills and allow God to lead you through this time as he sees fit. We are not here to see what WE can accomplish but to accomplish ALL in the glory and praise of the Father and through the name of the Son.
As you travel meditate on this.....
"In the same way, let your light shine before men that they may see your good deeds and praise YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN! Matt 5: 16
We are waiting for you!!!

Oops; I think I left my msg. in the wrong place so will copy it over to here!! Hey Okolona group; we watched until the last one was through security; Michelle W. had tears streaming down her face! She will be fine, boys. My prayers are with all of you esp. the first timers since you really do not know what to expect; sorta like having a baby--people can tell you what it's like but you have to experience it yourself!! Thanks for calling me, Melissa. I will check these daily & try to send you a line or two also. Cats are fine! Love you, Mom (Linda W.)

Additamentum to earlier msg. to Okolona group; as we were walking out, I think it was David's family who came into the airport wanting to say good-bye; anyway the one tall kid had to be his brother! They were sad; we were sad for them. Tell David & (sorry) the girl with him that they were there. Thanks, Linda W.
