This is the Day!

Hello!

Or, as they say in Zulu - sawubona! This is the day that the Lord has made. And I am rejoicing and very glad to be in it. Because today I fly to South Africa. Hard to believe it's finally here. So many packing days. So many meds. So many hours planning and preparing. But, we are about to take off. And so I ask for your prayers. Prayers for safe travel during the next two days. Prayers for the arrival of all of our bags - intact!! Prayers for team unity among the 21 of us only just now starting to get to know each other. Prayers for those we leave behind who are anxious about our leaving. Prayers for joy as we serve our brothers and sisters in South Africa.

I hope to be able to e-mail by Saturday evening to let you know we are there safe and sound. But if I can't, don't worry. Sometimes there's just no power over there :) We'll be in touch as often as we can.

Thank you, again, for your support of this trip. We are excited to see what God has in store for us all!

In Him,
Sarah
